After researching neurotensin , decide which part of that peptide pathway to target so a drug will enhance learning and memory.

a) Which part of the peptide pathway will you target?

b) How will your drug affect that target? Remember to use your core pharmacology concepts to help you decide this.

4) Prepare a 1 page poster (A3 size) advertising your new drug. Your poster must include the following required elements:

a) The name of your new drug (be creative!).

b) A brief description of the peptide pathway your drug acts on, and how this peptide affects learning and memory.

c) An explanation of the mechanism of action for your drug. Use a flow diagram to help explain this.

d) A catchy marketing slogan to advertise your drug. (For the purposes of this exercise, we will disregard the normal regulations that govern the marketing of pharmaceuticals in Australia!).

e) Reference information. You can choose your preferred referencing style, and where you place this information on your poster (although it must be on the same page as the poster, not on the back). There is no minimum number of references.

Ultimate frisbee players are so poor they don’t own coins. So, team captains decide which team will play offense first by flipping frisbees before the start of the game. Rather than flip one frisbee and call a side, each team captain flips a frisbee and one captain calls whether the two frisbees will land on the same side, or on different sides. Presumably, they do this instead of just flipping one frisbee because a frisbee is not obviously a fair...
