4.24.19 Finalizing Independent Projects

Rationale: Since the due date for the project is approaching, today was used to consolidate the information that had been gathered and produce a final, complete abstract.

Procedure:

• Abstract was revised using the tips that Lathan left for us
• Primary literature was used to give additional weight to our findings, and the literature found today was positive for supporting the notion that our sequence was a regulatory sequence
• PowerPoint graphics were created and consolidated
• Information and an outline were made for the PowerPoint
• Slides were created, not finished.

Results:

• Hypothesis that the sequence is a regulatory sequence is supported by primary literature, which also gave steps for continuing research to prove this.
• Abstract was successfully edited and submitted
• Powerpoint was created and distributed to group members.

Conclusions:

• Since many other logical options have been eliminated, the last remaining option that would be a regulatory sequence. This was supported by primary literature, which provides enough of a basis to present this as relevant findings.

Next Steps: Finalize PowerPoint and present to the class.
