Patents and Intellectual Property
It was interesting learning about the different types of intellectual property and the process to obtain them. Types of Intellectual Property Patents Copyright Trademarks Trade Secrets Faculty: Dr. Karen Evans PSC 3001 Spring 2014 – Intellectual Property_Evans
Research with Humans and Animals
This is when I learned research with humans does not necessarily mean some crazy Frankenstein experiment. “A living individual person about whom an investigator conducting research obtains data through intervention or interaction with the individual or identifiable private information.” It could be something as simple as testing if sports drinks actually have an effect on…
Biosafety
I learned a lot about biology and biosafety in this discussion since I have not been in a biology class or lab. I honestly thought it was going to be quite boring but it was really interesting. I never knew there was a difference between a chemical fume hood and a biological safety cabinet, to…
