“The reason I could see so far is because I stood on the shoulders of giants”

Science is built on the discoveries of others. As Einstein once said, “The reason I could see so far is because I stood on the shoulders of giants”. This information is used to formulate a researcher’s hypothesis in the scientific method, guide experiments, and later becomes a part of the final research article. Part of a research project (really any project you may be involved in, regardless of the discipline) is gathering and presenting information; this is the purpose of the assignment. Steps to complete this assignment. 1. Find a topic that interests you, dealing with some aspect of biology or science. 2. Research this topic, using currently published information, with at least three sources. 3. Write the report.
