    Overview

    The 10-week Research on Neuroscience for High School Program is where the student conducts research and write a scientific journal guided by a Neuroscience Expert and Assistant Professor of Physiology and Neuroscience, University of Southern California. Students will deep-dive into Neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and Huntington's disease, including biomarker development, Protein membrane interaction.

    Students work with Neuroscience Expert and Assistant Professor of Physiology and Neuroscience, University of Southern California. Students will deep-dive into Neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and Huntington's disease, including biomarker development, Protein membrane interaction, and protein-peptide biochemistry.

    And with Expert Creative Writer to become a subject matter expert in a specific area of Cancer research. Students will be guided into writing an individual research paper with 4000+ words and provided guidance into submitting journals that accept student research. 

    Details:

    Week 1-2: Topic Exploration and Background Research

    Conduct preliminary background research on specific fields. Meet with the creative writing expert to learn about effective research writing techniques.

    Week 3-4: Formulating Research Questions and Objectives

    Meet with the research expert to refine and finalize the research questions.

    Week 5-6: Data Collection and Analysis

    Begin collecting relevant data through literature reviews, case studies, and interviews.Meet with the creative writing expert to learn how to effectively present research findings in a compelling manner.

    Week 7-8: Writing the Research Paper

    Receive guidance from the creative writing expert on structuring and organizing the paper.Write the results and discussion sections of the research paper, presenting the findings from data analysis and discussing their implications for education. 

    Week 9: Drafting Conclusion and Revision

    Revise the entire paper for coherence, clarity, and adherence to academic standards. Seek input from both experts on improving the paper.

    Week 10: Finalization and Presentation Preparation
