This is the section to place your abstract. Start with a couple of sentences of introduction, purpose, and background. State your hypothesis. You can use italics to provide emphasis. Describe the methods you used to test your hypothesis. You don’t need copious detail here. State your results. Statistical information supports these results and makes the data believable. Briefly discuss the results and add a concluding remark that summarizes the overall scientific impact of the study. If space available, describe future efforts of the study and overarching goals of the scientific program. Add a disclaimer, if your institute requires it. In case you were wondering how long 250 words appear, I will add in gibberish to fill in this abstract. Fefwefewffrth 6 xxs ty t rt g gege. Fefweefweffdsf treregerki l rg e grtjytjtujtgegeggg.
