Describe the pathogen (bacteria, virus, fungi, protist, or worm), its lifecycle in the body, which part of the body it targets (cells, tissues, organs).

Oral Presentation: provide a 5-7 min presentation to the class about your disease. Create a separate PowerPoint, you may use your paper to show images and diagrams on the projector. Do not just read us your paper, but summarize, describe, and be ready to answer questions. (Points possible: 50) This is the report content: REPORT CONTENT Your written report must include the following sections. For each section, write paragraphs to address all questions listed. During the presentation, verbally summarize the information for the class. 1) Pathogen (with diagrams) Describe the pathogen (bacteria, virus, fungi, protist, or worm), its lifecycle in the body, which part of the body it targets (cells, tissues, organs). Use concepts of microbiology learned in class to give a thorough overview. Include photos/diagrams when possible-but make sure to provide source. (Points possible: 10 for paper, 10 for presentation) 2) Transmission How does a person first get infected? How can the disease spread between hosts? Is it spread by animals or environmental factors? Can this pathogen survive outside of the body? What can be done to limit transmission (prevention techniques)? (Points possible: 10 for paper, 10 for presentation) 3) Symptoms (with diagrams) What physical symptoms are associated with the disease? Why do these symptoms occur (tie in with your knowledge of anatomy/physiology)? What are the long-term consequences if not treated? What is the survival rate or mortality rate of the disease? For any statistic, you must provide an internal citation. (Points possible: 10 for paper, 10 for presentation) 4) Diagnosis & Treatment How is your disease diagnosed? Describe the medical care available to fight the disease. Are there side-effects or risks of the treatment? Will the person be cured, can they become reinfected, is there sequela or is it a chronic condition? (Points possible: 10 for paper, 10 for presentation) 5) Demographics & AI Who is most likely to catch this disease? Find statistics on the incidence and prevalence of this disease in the USA versus other countries. For any statistic, you must provide an internal citation. What AI models are available to help diagnose and/or help with creating a treatment plan or risk assessment?
