About this Guide
A Studied Life
Self-study, finding out more about how you personally function, is one of the trickiest areas of research. We all have pre-conceived notions about who we are and what impacts us on a daily basis. The reward is finding out what we are great at, and learning to work around everything else. Be gentle with yourself, self-study can reveal a lifetime of rewards.

In lab work, things often don’t go as planned. Here was an attempt to model the synergistic (joint) effects of pepsin and hydrochloric acid in breaking protein down into amino acids.
Body Library
If you are building a library about the human body, children’s books can provide a good foundation of basics for the entire family. These books bring the natural world to life.
