Written Summary
For each journal article, a 1-2 page summary (single spaced) will be due at the beginning of the class period that we will discuss the article. These journal article summaries account for 10% of your total grade. Please follow the generic format outlined below for your journal article summaries – make sure to write in paragraph form:
Section 1: Article summary
Introduction: provide a brief introduction that presents the necessary background information if the study – write in your own words!
Purpose: Identify the reason that the researchers performed this study – i.e. what was known before the study was performed, what information was missing from the field, and how did this study aim to address this lack of information?
Materials/methods: How was the study performed and what experiments were performed to address the study’s aim? I expect that you will not be familiar with many of the techniques and scientific methods used in these articles. You are expected to become familiar enough with the methods in the paper to understand the paper (Google is your friend!). In this section of the summary, you do not need to go into extreme detail – i.e. you do not need to list the ingredients of a chemical solution used to culture cells in an experiment. I’d rather you focus on experimental design used in the study to illustrate that you understand why certain experiments were conducted. Here is an example from the first journal article to illustrate what I’d like to see in this section:
Summarizing the methods section for the detection of oxidized proteins:
Avoid: Cells were lysed in caspase buffer from BioSource and proteins were separated on 4-20% acrylamide gels. Oxidized proteins were identified with the Western blot technique with an anti-DNP antibody diluted 1:150.
Aim for: Following exposure to metallic ions, cells were lysed and protein oxidation, a marker for cellular damage, was investigated using Western blot.
Results: What did the study find?
Discussion: How do the authors discuss their findings? Were the results as expected or surprising? Major outcomes?
Section 2: Article evaluation/critique
This portion of the article summary is for you to express your opinions of the study. If this is your first experience reading primary literature articles, I expect this section will be challenging at first. Things to think about when writing this portion:
Data interpretation – do you agree with how the authors have interpreted their data?
Data presentation – have the authors presented the data in a clear and concise way?
Experimental design – did the authors choose the best experiments to address their question, why or why not?
Are the authors’ claims supported by their data (findings are often overstated!)
Missing or suggested follow-up experiments? What other experiments are necessary to convince you of their findings?
Section 3: Article reflection
Comment on how this paper builds off of what we have seen in class. What parallels do you see between class material and the content in the article?
Section 4: New term definitions
Identify and define 10-15 new terms you encountered in the paper that you had to look up. Make sure your definition matches the context in which the term is used. This can be a bulleted list.

1. Write a 4-5 page paper on medical device approval pathways (510K, IDE, PMA) regulated by the FDA. Go into the different classifications of medical devices and the rules governing each as well. (20 pts)
2. Find a recently recalled medical device that has been pulled from the market and report on why the device was recalled, what adverse events were caused, the root cause for the adverse event and how the company responded when they found about the defect. Report on whether you think the company and the FDA handled this event appropriately. Include in your report significant documents that the FDA sent the company and the company’s responses. Suggested length 2-3 pages. (20 pts.)

The outcome of the French and Indian War, also known as the Seven Years’ War, played a pivotal role in setting the stage for the American Revolution. This conflict, fought between 1754 and 1763, involved major European powers such as Great Britain, France, and Spain, as well as various Native American tribes. The consequences of the war profoundly influenced the relationship between the American colonies and Britain, ultimately contributing to the outbreak of theRevolutionary War. To thoroughly examine this topic, it’s essential to delve into the causes, course, and consequences of the French and Indian War, as well as its impact on colonial attitudes toward British rule and notions of liberty and independence.
I.
A. Brief overview of the French and Indian War
B. Thesis statement outlining the war’sB. Thesis statement outlining the war’s impact on setting the stage for the American Revolution
II. Causes of the French and Indian War
A. Competition over territorial expansion
B. between European powers for dominance in North America
C. Disputes over fur trade and control of strategic waterways
D. of alliances with Native American tribesIII. Course of the French and Indian War

B. Financial costs and economic strain on Britain
C. Heightened tensions between settlers and Native Americans
D. British attempts to assert control over the colonies through policies such as the Proclamation of 1763
V. Impact on Colonial AttitudesA. Growing sense of resentment toward British taxation and policies
B. Emergence of colonial identity and desire for self-governance
C. Influence of Enlightenment ideas on notions of liberty and natural rights
D. Role of colonial newspapers, pamphlets, and political leaders in shaping public opinion
VI. Precursors to the American RevolutionA. Passage of controversial legislation such as the Stamp Act and Townshend Acts
B. Colonial responses, including boycotts, protests, and the formation of Committees of Correspondence
C. Escalating violence and confrontations, such as the Boston Massacre and Boston Tea Party
D. First Continental Congress and the call for unity among the coloniesVII. Conclusion
A. Recap of the French and War’s significance in shaping the path to the American Revolution
B. Reflection on the enduring legacy of the war in American history
C. Final thoughts on the interconnectedness of geopolitical events and revolutionary movements
By exploring these themes and analyzing the multifaceted impact of the Frenchand Indian War, we can gain a deeper understanding of how this conflict served as a catalyst for the American Revolution. From the seeds of discontent sown during the war to the fervent calls for independence that followed, the events of the mid-18th century continue to shape the fabric of American society and politics to this day.
