The PI lab reports require sufficient references to primary research literature (relevant to the experiment you undertook) to define the context of the work and to provide a balanced discussion of your findings.

Procedure for Submitting Article Citations

1. Each student is required to find ONE article relevant to the current experiment. Photocopy the complete article, including references cited, and be sure the complete citation is written on the top of the first page. Some articles will have this information already printed as a header or footer.

2. Turn this copy in at lecture by the assigned date (see lab schedule). NOTE: If a PDF version of the file is available, you may simply email a copy to Greg in lieu of making a hardcopy.

3. Unless otherwise directed, send to Greg (ganderso) the complete citation of the article via email. The citation format should be as listed in the "How to Write" guide for the type of source and number of authors. Note that all authors' names must be given and in the order shown on the paper.

General citation format: Authors. Pub year. Title. Journal name abbreviated. Vol#(issue#):pp-pp. (NOTE: for Vol and Issue, do not use the words, just the numbers.)
