Your explanation of the grid cells was very informative, really teaching the reader their importance. You really analyzed why the even was important. Talking about how gird cells could potentially help find a cure makes the article seem real and relatable. <br />I found this whole article interesting. But stuff like how scientists have a map of the brain and are able to locate the grid cells via mice was not something you learn about every day which I thought was pretty cool.<br />I think you did a great job with this analysis, it was clear and easy to read. It was very well explained. My only suggestion would be just like Matt's, to ditch a few of those beginning sentences, they weren't really necessaryJohn Yiengerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14056374163215812686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566910144128958757.post-9897066838843915562013-05-29T18:59:15.006-07:002013-05-29T18:59:15.006-07:00 Your initial explanation of grid cells was excell... Your initial explanation of grid cells was excellent. I really understood what they are and why they are important. You did this by explaining the function of grid cells language that was easy to understand. Also, I thought you did a great job of showing why the event was so important. Everyone is aware of Alzheimer’s disease by one way or another. Saying that these grid cells could help to find a cure for the disease made your writing interesting and connectable. Finally, I liked how you ended with a quote from the article. This gave me a sense of the type of writing that the article was written in. The quote was relevant and easy to understand.<br /> I found it interesting that scientists had a very clear map of the human brain. They were able to relate the human brain to that of a mouse in order to attempt to locate the grid cells. I also found it interesting that the study of grid cells could lead to the earlier diagnosis of Alzheimer’s. It is cool that scientists can tell so much just from electrical signals in our brains.<br /> Overall, Hilary did a great job of explaining the article. She made it clear and easy to understand. If I had to tell Hilary a way to improve her summary, it would be to cut down on some sentences in the first part of the summary. Some of the sentences were not necessary.<br />Matthew Bettinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11494389596941540201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566910144128958757.post-30563177345682394302013-05-27T14:26:27.103-07:002013-05-27T14:26:27.103-07:00One aspect that I like from Hilary's current e...One aspect that I like from Hilary's current event is how in the beginning she gave some background information on the history of grid cells, and the way she connected it to the most recent research. By doing this Hilary let the reader understand what has been going on in the past years on this topic. Another thing that I thought Hilary did well is that she defined the word physiology. This helped me understand what was going on in her current even because without this definition it would have been very unclear of what was exactly going on in this research. The third thing that Hilary did well is that she explained why the newly founded research of grid cells can help us in our future when it comes to Alzheimer's disease. One thing that I found interesting is that scientists believe that this research that was conducted on mice will be true for all mammals. The last thing that I found to be interesting was the connection to Alzheimer's disease and the way in which it could possibly cure people with this disease. Overall this current event report was written well, but one thing that Hilary could improve on is to elaborate on her opinion.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03950326427670010658noreply@blogger.com
