The FDA Drug Database

  • The purpose: what was the purpose of your investigations?
  • Your methods: what did you actually do? Give a step by step account for Tasks 1-4 listed above. There should be enough detail provided so that you or another person could re-do it based solely on your notebook. You may copy protocol instructions on your page and modify them as to what you actually did, as long as you provide appropriate attribution. Take advantage of the electronic nature of the notebook by providing screenshots, links to web pages, links to data, etc.
  • Your results: the answers to the questions below, plus any other results you gathered. Usually it makes sense to embed your answers to the questions/results in the "methods" in the order in which you obtained them.
  • A scientific conclusion: what was your main finding for today's project? Did you fulfill the purpose? Why or why not?
