Not all-inclusive – if you have another idea, but aren’t sure if it fits under the biotech umbrella, please email me or stop by with a copy of the article. Remember, if it is not on this list, it must be pre-approved.
Articles used for journal critiques must be research articles (clinical trial, case reports or meta-analyses), not review or continuing education articles.

Note that these topics would also apply for the popular media critiques, and many of the general topics would be good ideas for the fictional critiques (i.e. books/movies such as “Boys from Brazil” and “Jurassic Park” deal with cloning, “Gattaca” deals with genetic engineering and testing).

General topics:

• Biosimilars
• Stem cell research
• Cloning
• Genetically modified food or animals / Biopharming
• Polymerase chain reaction
• Blotting techniques (southern, northern, western)
• Pharmacogenomics
• Biotech techniques as used in forensics / DNA profiling
• Genome editing
• Gene therapy
• RNA interference / RNAi
• Antisense / morpholinos
• CAR-T
• Genetic testing
• Neutralizing antibodies as potential Covid treatment; testing methods for such antibodies
