CHRONIC DISEASES

Research Paper on Diabetes

Each student will write a 5-7 page research paper on a chronic disease or an emerging/re-emerging disease using at least 5 or more current sources, APA format, double-spaced, and 12 point font. Also include an abstract, cover page, introduction, specific details of the disease (include information on your disease if it is considered a regionally based disease), and a conclusion. The rubric provided in the Docsharing will help guide you through the development and implementation of the paper.
