Promising

10:15 AM: I met with Dr. Pittman to discuss last week's results, follow up on the procedures, and we got a game plan started for more experiments and a guideline for my paper. We also talked to Dr. Bass and Dr. Arrington about measuring the PH of the solutions I will be titrating.

Overall: Today was encouraging; I feel I am moving forward in the right direction. I let today be just about planning. I've got eight subjects scheduled for titrations over the next two days.
     The broad research is to understand what goes on in our saliva after contact with triglycerides, and where does this lead and factor into overeating fatty foods. Hopefully by the end of interim, we can determine if saliva can detect fatty acids in corn oil.
