Preliminary Research

 Before deciding on a final idea I have done some preliminary research on my initial ideas so that I can see how easily it is to find potential resources for my EPQ.



Through doing this I have discovered that that the gap in women's healthcare is more documented in modern times and there is not much on the history of women's healthcare. There is also lots of books available.

How chemicals react with brain is harder to research specifically as a lot of articles were about drug abuse and not medicinal drugs such as antidepressants which I would want to focus on.

The history of plastic surgery when research had many available articles but not many other resources such as books and podcasts so I couldn't vary my resources as much.

Also the Hippocratic Oath would have to researched for the American healthcare system so it was hard to find articles and more complicated to research.
