. Please provide a description of your project (150 words). This description will be published in the symposium program, so please take care to write your description as you would like others to see it. In addition, please remember that attendees from many different disciplines will be in attendance and that your description should be easily understood by all.
Sample Description: "My senior thesis project investigates the knowledge, beliefs, and values of Brandeis undergraduate students about genetic and genomic testing. My research draws on in-depth interviews with twelve students from a variety of majors. These interviews explore Brandeis students' beliefs about their health and their opinions about the effects of genetic testing on both a personal and a societal level. Because genetic and genomic testing is projected to greatly affect healthcare, as well as the insurance industry and other aspects of our lives, I wanted to start a dialogue with my peers about these emerging technologies. My research has pushed me to think creatively and analytically, and I hope my project will lead to further research on the public opinions and concerns surrounding genetic and genomic testing."
In your description, please answer the following:
1. What did you do?
2. What did you learn?
3. How can you apply what you learned in the future?
