Overview
This paper will guide you in understanding and critiquing the current literature in the broad area of Developmental Biology (topics vary from year to year). You will also learn the essentials of how to communicate complex scientific concepts to a lay audience using multiple media, such as podcasts, popular writing and oral presentation.
