Nuclear Chemistry Project: Due 2/7

You are going to research, write and present on a topic in nuclear medicine. Nuclear medicine is broken down into Radiopharmaceuticals, Radioimaging/diagnostics, and Radiation/Disease treatment. When choosing a topic be specific, ie: use of Barium isotopes in radioimaging. This will help when writing your research paper.

Research Paper Guidelines:

  • Typed- Double Spaced and1 inch Margins
  • Times New Roman 12 pt font in black (nothing squirrely)
  • Separate work cited page
  • MLA Header and MLA Title page
  • Your structure should be Clearly written and have Cohesive Paragraphs (that are indented correctly)
  • Use of correct spelling and correct grammar (no slang)
  • Attach Hand written rough draft

Presentations Guidelines:

  • Clearly spoken and easily understood. Don’t be BLAH!!
  • Well rehearsed/ may use note cards but don’t read directly off them.
  • Can easily answer questions asked about your topic
  • Should be at least 3 minutes long. Time yourself when you practice, you will speak faster when you present in front of the class.
