Okay I know i'm asking for homework help here but I want some cool topics for this class where we have to find a topic and come up with a proposal on how we would research it. Pretty please I have a few ideas down already: How is climate change altering the geographic range of Collared Pika, and what are the ecological consequences for the native species already living in that ecosystem?

Why are cancers so hard to treat? Because a tumour isn't a single enemy. It's a population of our own cells that keeps evolving, and every treatment we use is a selection pressure.

I'm Alex, a genetics PhD at UCL researching cancer evolution.

I got an essay to do about the anatomy and hygiene of the skeletal system. I've found a lot of stuff about the common conditions and diseases and whatnot, and they all describe the causes briefly, but I need a source "purely" about the factors that can affect the skeletal system, and I can't seem to find anything of the sort online. Can anyone help? Official verified sources, obviously. Thanks a lot in advance!

I have been in research administration for 12+ years and I am currently an Associate VP for Research. One of the things I see constantly is that researchers at institutions without Pivot, GrantForward, or Cayuse subscriptions are on their own when it comes to finding funding. They manually check Grants.gov, NSF, NIH, DOE, USDA, foundation pages, and whatever newsletters they happen to be on. It is time-consuming and most of what they find is not relevant to their work.

I built a tool called CONVERGE to address this. It takes a researcher's profile, their field, prior funding, publication history, and research interests, and matches them against federal, state, and foundation funding opportunities. It delivers matched opportunities with a fit analysis so the researcher can see which ones are worth pursuing and which to skip.

I am posting here because biology faculty and postdocs, particularly at primarily undergraduate institutions, and smaller schools, are one of the groups most affected by this gap. NSF divisions across BIO, NIH institutes, DOE, USDA NIFA, and private foundations all post biology-relevant funding, but finding the right match is a weekly manual effort without institutional tools.

I would genuinely value feedback from working biologists. Does this kind of matching solve a problem you actually have? What would make it useful in your workflow? What is missing from how you currently search for funding?

The tool is live and free to try. Link in my profile. Happy to answer questions in comments or DM.

I believe electronic and technology radiation from modern day society is the root cause of the Alzheimer's Disease.

I believe electronic and technology radiation causes our neurons to be overstimulated, which is what causes them to produce the amyloid plaque byproduct.

I believe the solution is to make sure we have enough fats in our body for our neuron's to utilize to have a sound, structural cell wall(these cell walls are partially composed of fats/lipids). Having a sound, structural neuronal cell wall serves as a reflector of the electronic and technological radiation. Think how thick, viscous compounds don't let sound through, but rather absorb and reflect it.

Think about it. Go into a room with the lights on, computer running, etc.. Then go outdoors in nature early in the morning when there's minimal interference from cars, or other human made technological sounds. When you're out in nature the stimuli that reaches your ears are more relaxed vibrations, as opposed to being in a room with lots of technology and electronics, whereas you'll feel a more heavy stimuli sensation on your ears.

Alzheimer's first case was 1906. The first electronic technology was created in 1835. The electronic created at that date was known as 'The relay' by Joseph Henry.

My theory also holds that electronic radiation from electronic light over time can lead to the irritation of the neurons. The first electronic light was created in 1802 by Humphry Dave. Think about it. Electronic light and the first electronics come out in the early 1800's and develops rapidly. By 1906 you have your first Alzheimer's case.

The electronic sound radiation appears to be directed at neurons because this stimuli type is only picked up by our nervous tissue. Our other cell types don't perceive these negative stimuli, so they aren't affected in the sense that they won't product a cause and effect byproduct. The fact that neurons are the only cell to illicit a response to these electronic sound radiation is why they're the only cells with a byproduct, specifically the amyloid plaque.

When you're indoors in a room full of technology and lights, compared to being outdoors in nature at 5am when no human created sound can be heard, don't you feel more irritated when you're indoors? I believe this is because the electronic radiation is affecting our nerve cells in an irritating manner, which is what gives us that slight sensation of emotional irritation from those 2 settings. Think about it. The radiation affects our nerve cells and emotions stem from our nerve cells. We're perceiving the sensation of annoyance because our nerve cells are getting annoyed from an outside stimuli. Just go in a room with lights running, computer running, etc. and try to feel in tune with your ears.

I believe the sound radiation from electronics irritate our neurons, which illicit the emotional response of annoyance. I believe we don't react to this annoyance because we're so used to hearing this sound radiation from electronics because we're always next to a computer with the lights on, that we just don't perceive the sensation to be annoying anymore since that's our normal. When you focus on your ears and really think about what you're hearing is when those minute sounds start becoming irritating because you're thinking, thus perceiving, all those sound disturbances.
