HootOwl Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 My dd has to write her first research paper for biology and is struggling with selecting a topic. I've Googled for the past 15 minutes and keep getting very bland "generic" websites from ask.com, yahoo.com, etc. that aren't from a scientist's perspective. Can anyone share any great websites or other resources that you've found for some interesting research paper topic ideas? Many thanks in advance!

JanetC Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 What is the assignment? Is there any more guidance than just 'write a research paper about biology?' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Targhee Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 I read something this morning about tardigrades having 17% foreign DNA - very intriguing! It is preliminary research, but you could bulk up the research by talking about other organisms which incorporate foreign DNA such as the photosynthetic sea slug Elysia chlorotica. And there's plenty of background research info based in DNA of bacteria, viral plasmids, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
