    An abstract is a mini version of your paper expressed with a minimal number
    of words. In most cases, places that ask for an abstract such as grant proposals,
    academic journals, and conference presentations, place strict limits on the
    number of words that an abstract can use. Here is a useful resource on things to
    consider when writing an abstract.

    medical approaches. The advent of “induced pluripotent stem” cells (iPS cells)
    that can be derived from adult skin cells or blood cells offers an exciting
    alternative to the use of embryonic stem cells for this purpose, and the
    opportunity to develop “patient-specific” stem cells genetically and
    immunologically matched to each individual. Nevertheless, much research is
    still needed to optimize the efficacy and safety of stem cell-based therapeutic
    approaches before applying these to human patients. Nonhuman primates, such
    as baboons, are the most clinically relevant yet still experimentally manipulable
    animal model for studies of stem cell-based therapeutic approaches.

    introduction
    The spread of the internet has had a world-changing effect, not
    least on the world of education. The use of the internet in
    academic contexts and among young people more generally is
    hotly debated. For many who did not grow up with this
    technology, its effects seem alarming and potentially harmful.
    This concern, while understandable, is misguided. The
    negatives of internet use are outweighed by its many benefits
    for education: the internet facilitates easier access to
    information, exposure to different perspectives, and a flexible
    learning environment for both students and teachers.
    Step 1. Start with a
    question
    Has the internet had a positive or negative impact on
    education?
    What impact did the invention of braille (the raised-dot
    reading system used by blind and visually impaired people)
    have?
    The internet has had more
    of a positive than a negative

    Step 4: Refine your thesis statement

    The negatives of internet use are outweighed by its many


    benefits for education: it facilitates easier access to
    information, exposure to different perspectives, and a flexible
    learning environment for both students and teachers.
    The invention of braille transformed the lives of blind people
    in the 19th century, but its success depended on mainstream
    acceptance by sighted teachers, and this process was shaped
    by debates about disabled people’s place in society.
