Individual Assignment – Mini Literature Review (700-900 words) (20% of final module mark) This report will be a literature review on a research topic of interest covered in the 'Biomaterials' classes. General guidelines: The purpose of this review is to give a brief overview of the studies performed on the selected topic and to provide a critical evaluation of the literature in a clear and concise manner. It should be an original piece of work. Only peer review journal experimental articles should be included in the review, which should be clearly cited. Students should not use other review papers to form the basis of their review. The overall objective of the assignment is to familiarise students with the scientific literature, understand these articles and critique their content. A good review identifies what information is important and condenses that information for the reader. Better understanding of the subject will make it easier to explain it thoroughly and briefly. A minimum of 8 experimental scientific papers should be used and referenced in the review (no need to submit these papers with your report). This mini-review should be between 700-900 words (excluding references). The review should: be written in your own words; contain the main arguments and critical evaluation of the papers; • be clearly structured, have an introduction and a conclusion; • • indicate where you agree or disagree with the authors. The review should not: use other review papers published in the literature as the basis of this report; • • be produced using cut-and-paste at any stage; . contain any sentences (or phrases more than a few words long) occurring in the original paper (quoted or not). Provide all references used at the end of your report. Use an appropriate referencing style, for example the ACS style (link given below) or a different one: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.1021/acsguide.40303
