Essay Instructions:

Narrow your interest topics by using the tips we just learned this week. For this week's homework write up a short list of 3 topics you would be interested in for research, from the most interesting to the least. Create a list by using a descriptive one line title for each topic (i.e. do not need in depth description for this part of listing).
According to your list of interesting topics, find 2 professors (total, not per topic) doing research related (does not have to be exact, just related) to one or more of your topics. Look at their websites and also at some of their papers. Choose ONE project that interests you the most from that professors research. In a <250 word paragraph (one for each of the 2 professors) describe what major problem/question they are trying to address, how this particular project will solve/answer this problem/question, why you find this interesting, what skills might you want to learn if you worked on this project (and support how you know those skills could be learned using examples) and what experience do you already have that might be useful to them if you worked for them (classes you took, previous work, your personal traits). Also include the name of the professors and URLs for the web sites or papers describing the project. Submit as .doc, .docx file. Fulfill all parts of this prompt for full credit.
WARNING: zero tolerance for plagiarism! Be sure you are not copying from any websites or other sources! If the writing is too hard to understand, choose another source! If all of the work of the professor you chose is too hard to understand and summarize in your own words, pick another professor. Remember, these are potential professors you might like to work for. If you cannot understand what they do, they might not be a good choice for you!

Roles for Clinical Psychology in Community Care
Risk Factors and Causes of Drug Abuse
I am most intrigued with understanding PTSD from the list, and I found Professor Jonathan Bisson is also very interested in the topic. Jon is a psychotherapist in private practice and a psychiatry lecturer at Cardiff University. He became interested in PTSD while serving in the army as a doctor. Bisson’s study on using therapy to treat PTSD among adults really intrigued me. The project addresses the use of conventional treatment and seeks to promote the use of therapy as the most efficient treatment. The research intrigues me because I have always wanted to treat PTSD, especially for ex-military patients. Working for the professor would give me insight into the world of psychotherapy, and also, judging from his involvement with the army, I would also learn how to address the...
