HTHS 1110/1111: Biomed Core Lecture/Lab  

When you are starting your research with a broad topic (for example, diabetes) it is important to

 focus your research in some way. Here are several ideas:

• Focus on a particular aspect of a condition/disease (Drug therapies for diabetes)
• Focus on a particular population (Diabetes in African-American males)
• Focus on a particular location (Prevalence and treatment of diabetes in Asia)
• Focus on a particular time period (Treatment of diabetes during the 19th century)

If you don't narrow down your search in some way, you will retrieve way too many results.
