Prompt

You serve on a committee for a charitable foundation that will vote and decide how to fund grant requests for research on specific diseases. This research could lead to better understanding of disease mechanisms or new therapies/interventions. The applications for the grants have been narrowed down to three choices. Out of these choices, you may only choose one to vote for:1. Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva2.

Myasthenia gravis3. Huntington's disease Which option will you choose and try to convince others to vote for? There is no perfect choice available, and all three choices have strong grant applications. Through this two-part discussion with your classmates, you will state your choice, explain the normal anatomy of the system the disease impacts the most, explain how the disease disrupts this system, and why you chose to vote this way using appropriate and sufficient evidence. You will then respond to your classmates' posts to create an interactive conversation involving debating the diseases, comparing evidence, adding detail, asking questions, brainstorming treatment ideas, etc. Please remember that all of these diseases have merit so keep discussions friendly, or at least civil!
