Find an interesting short article relating to any aspect about oncology.

It could be about the tumors themselves, current treatments being used, etc.; or select a term from the Discussion 1 Table: Not Built From Word Parts located in the module. This includes, but is not limited to, articles from newspapers, magazines, journals, the Internet, or even a personal experience. Please do not submit a discussion topic that has already been used. In other words, if one student submits a discussion on malignant melanoma, then no one else can use that topic for that particular discussion.

Applying Principles of the Nervous System to Pharmaceutical Research

Imagine you are a student studying for your pharmacy technician certification exam. Your friend is quizzing you over drugs that affect the nervous system.

As a pharmacy technician you may be asked by a customer how a drug works or why they are taking a particular medication. They may be taking many different medications and can’t remember why they take a certain one.

The world human population in the twentieth century has been increasing exponentially. Speculate on the logical outcome if this rate of growth continues. How could this growth rate be reduced? What ethical issues could be associated with implementation of any “human management” practices?

Fill out the characteristic traits of each order

• What does "ethical" eating mean to you? Does this ever come into play when you make decisions about what to eat? Explain.
• What does "sustainable" eating mean to you? Does this ever come into play when you make decisions about what to eat? Explain.
• Would you make some changes in the way that you eat? Describe.
• Are you concerned about the amount of plastic, Styrofoam, and paper waste that is produced as a result of your eating? Do you have some ideas as far as how you might start to reduce it?
• Is there anything else that you would like to share with us when it comes to your opinions on eating? Just about anything is fair game! (e.g., issues related to meat consumption, sustainable seafood, health, fast food, etc.)
