The thematic paper is due by May 4 and should be uploaded to the class Blackboard page. Under the “assignments” tab you will see a file titled “Paper” which is where you can upload your paper. You do not have to upload the physiology related article you used to write the paper. Please do not email me your final paper. To receive credit, you must upload it to the Blackboard web page.
