Your lab project is your opportunity to practice and develop the skills of creating a research project on human subjects and carrying it out in an ethical and organized manner.

You will demonstrate understanding of experimental design and quantitative skills in data analysis and presentation, social interaction skills in experiment design and data interpretation, and communication as you present your findings in a poster and a scientific paper.

This menu links to all the documents you should need to do these things.

SUMMER STUDENTS: print out the Independent Project Assignment and Independent Project Planning Form 1 before your first lab, and bring them with you. Also bring your lab instructor a signed copy of the plagiarism contract. Your lab instructor will tell you which of the documents are needed for subsequent labs.
