Semester Topic Proposal

Since my major is nursing the topic I chose to do is the first one. Science and Technology: The good, the bad, and the ugly.In the medical field so many things have changed for the better because of science and technology. I would like my semester topic to be about the different types of medications we have on the market today, to help people with certain types of diseases that once upon a time there wasn't anything people could take to slow down the progression of that particular disease. I should say medicine in general has come a very long way from the early 1900's. I want to improve my knowledge of medications in general. There is a lot of things I don't know a would like to. I hope I would be able to inform my fellow classmates on a lot of things they may not know about dealing with medicine other than they need to take it because they're sick. They're so many diseases in society today every body should be interested in medicine. People get very sick and don't know whats wrong until it may be too late. I'm not sure whether I can change anything about medications, I'm a low woman on a very high totem pole.

I really like the topic you have chosen. We have so many medications for so many different kinds of diseases and I cant wait to read your paper and see what you have discovered. I know I'd really like to know the different ingredients in the medications that help patients and how the ingredients work together to help those patients...just thinking aloud:)
