Hospital vs Clinic Setting
No full textBeing a radiologic technology student means not only showing up to class but also going to clinicals. Clinicals provide hands-on learning with the imaging equipment along with learning anatomy and positioning techniques. Clinicals can help students learn like Asure quotes, “Through clinical practice, students translate theory into real-life experiences thereby allowing them to develop professional clinical attributes, such as professional identity, interpersonal skills, expertise in patient care, practice competence and confidence,” (Asare, 2017) in clinicals, students use the information they learned in class and apply it to either clinic or hospital settings. Hospitals are more faced-paced and see lots of different kinds of patients while clinics provide more of a daily routine and allow practice for patient interactions

Detecting Honeybee eDNA with Artificial Flowers
No full textEnvironmental DNA (eDNA) is an emerging method for surveying pollinators where:
● Environmental samples such as flower heads are collected
● DNA is extracted
● qPCR detects the presence of a species
Many survey methods are lethal to pollinators, where eDNA is not. However, a flower’s chemical makeup and size, how long a pollinator spends on it, and sun UV radiation can interfere with collection. Artificial flowers designed by the USGS can standardize eDNA and address some of these concerns. Research Focus: To determine the optimal deployment length of artificial flowers and if a sucrose reward is necessary for detecting honey bees (Apis mellifera). Doing so will evaluate their practicality and refine their methodology to improve cost and time efficiency
