Q. Can you help me find ideas for current event Biology topics? I'll want articles, too.

Sure. Not all of our article databases are good for browsing topics. You do have a few options, though.

First, go to our databases guide, which is linked below. 

First, try Opposing Viewpoints. At the top in the grey banner, select Browse Issues. You'll see an alphabetical list of issues. Scan them and see if anything works for you. If so, click the topic link to get taken to all the resources on that subject.

CQ Researcher has similar benefits. From the homepage, you'll see some featured topics and a Most Viewed list on the right. You might find an interesting topic there. Also, from the top, Select Issue Tracker from the Browse Issues drop down menu. You can scan the topics, click to expand for more detail, then select anything of interest.

Once you have a few ideas, if you need more articles, you can go to Academic Search Complete and do a keyword search.
