| You and your partner should prepare a 10 minute powerpoint talk that describes the research question you have identified, how you propose to study the question and what you hope to learn. A general outline your research proposal presentation is:
| | Congratulations, you made it! |
| * a brief project overview
| |
| * sufficient background information for everyone to understand your proposal
| |
| * a statement of the research problem and goals
| |
| * project details and methods
| |
| * predicted outcomes if everything goes according to plan and if nothing does
| |
| * needed resources to complete the work
| |
| * societal impact if all goes well

| *After most alkanes have been degraded, the Cycloclaticus species blooms while aromatic hydrocarbon levels decrease
| |
| *One thing to note is that as soon as they have done their job, both species return to their normal population levels.
| |
| *One problem with using Alcanivorax and Cycloclasticus to clean oil spills, however is that they can only be found in specific locations
