Project topics and briefs.
Life-science topics may use laboratory, field, organism or published-record evidence. Choose a method that fits available supervision, equipment, sample handling and permissions.
Choosing a useful scope
A measured association or controlled observation has limits: it does not automatically explain mechanism, population-wide prevalence or clinical outcomes.
