Having all of the consent forms updated and looked over by our mentor, professor DiLauro, we continued with the research on sugar. We started setting up our literature review document.

In addition to this, we laid out the timeline of the next week to collect data from participants. We managed to enroll up to 16 participants to meet the goal of 60 participants in total.

We also discussed to set our future goals for January and the coming months:

Collect at least 60 participants t total

Today, as the last day of the internship, in the morning hours we continued researching more about how high sugar intake can affect the brain waves. After reading new information, we gathered everything in an organized manner, and we saved everything for future reference. Later on, during the day, we concluded the PowerPoint that we were going to present on the final presentations at 2:30 PM. Later, we shared our parts and we started practicing. Once all of the presentations were over, we headed back to the old STEM room, we collected all of our equipment, and we put everything in our designated cabinet.
