Freshman Research Initiative- research methods Homework #7
Dr. Reichler Fall 2010

A guest lecturer will speak to class on October 27th.  She is an established researcher from UT-Austin who will tell us about her job as well as the educational and research paths that led her to her career path.  In addition to listening to her lecture, I want you to take an active role by asking questions of our guest lecturers.  It is difficult to ask questions when you do not know what they will present.  So for homework #7 I am asking you to develop three questions you might ask this presenter.  Below is a link to some background information on the speaker that you can use to develop your questions.  You are free to do some additional research about them, such as search for their publications in a database or other search engines.


Dr, Mona Mehdy is professor at UT-Austin in the Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology.
For information on Dr. Mehdy's research see: http://www.biosci.utexas.edu/directory/details.aspx?id=1698


Your
three questions are due the day of the speaker's lecture.  Your assignment should include your name and class time, the name of the speaker you have developed the questions for, and then include your three questions.  These homework assignments must be printed.  (Handwritten assignments will not be accepted.)

Homework #7 is due at the end of lecture on W 10/27.
