Project Topic—Myogenesis

Overview

Myogenesis refers to the process of muscle development. With the integral role that muscles—whether cardiac, smooth, or skeletal—play in the function of many organisms, the study of myogenesis has become a major point of interest in modern biological research. From muscular dystrophy to heart disease, there is a myriad of medical conditions that researchers could potentially better address with increased study and understanding of myogenesis. Unfortunately, the current page for myogenesis (as of February 7th, 2013) relays but a small portion of the findings from myogenic research available on the web. Our goal is to improve both the quantity and quality of information on myogenesis in the Wikipedia community by providing insight from the most reputable, cutting-edge authorities in this field of research. We hope to share a well-constructed, detailed description of myogenesis with all readers in this forum.

Our approach to this project is simple: We aim to provide Wikipedia users with the best possible article by actively seeking the most up-to-date and detailed information from respected sources. Below, we have listed a selection of projected topics to be covered and projected sources to be consulted during our project.
