The following describes how to upload an image with all the information that must be associated with it.

The image must first be uploaded to the site.

  1. Open the left hand menu item “Toolbox” and click “Upload file” and a new window will open.
  2. Click the button ”Choose file” and navigate to where the image is located on your computer and double click the file.
  3. The window will now show the file name in the “Source filename” window.
  4. You can then rename the uploaded file in the “Destination filename” window.
    1. Make sure the new name accurately describes the image.
  5. Add a description of the image to the “Summary” window. Note the description must include:
    1. An image name as a section heading.
    2. Any further description of what the image shows.
    3. A subsection labeled “Reference” and under this the original image source, appropriate reference and all copyright information.
    4. Finally a template indicating that this is a student image. {{Template:Student Image}}

Images not including the above information will be deleted by the course coordinator and be considered in the student assessment process.

Students cannot delete uploaded images. Contact the course coordinator with the file address.

Here is a good source for overview and status of 3 Person IVF. http://www.geneticsandsociety.org/article.php?id=6527

Mitochondria

  • discovered in muscle by Kölliker in 1857
  • mitochondria are the "powerhouses" of the cell and the location where respiration occurs at the cellular level.
  • mitochondria contain their own DNA (mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA) that has been originally inherited only from the oocyte (maternal inheritance).
  • The spermatozoa (paternal) mitochondria- energy for fertilization motility but are generally destroyed during the first mitotic cell divisions.
  • This pattern of inheritance has important implications for a variety of mitochondrial associated diseases, usually occurring in tissues requiring lots of energy (muscle, brain).
Electron micrograph of mitochondria.

Eukaryotic mitochondrial genomes

  • double stranded circular DNA (mitoDNA. mtDNA)
  • 1981 complete human sequence (16,569 nucleotides)
    • 37 genes
    • encodes 13 polypeptides involved in oxidative phosphorylation
  • remaining genes transfer RNA (tRNA) and ribosomal RNA (rRNA)
  • multiple copies within the matrix
  • maternally inherited
  • remainder encoded by nuclear DNA
  • proteins made in cytosol and imported into mitochondria

--Mark Hill (talk) 11:13, 25 September 2015 (AEST) OK so just text on your page to date and not yet a thorough coverage of the topic. Animal models, timeline, images, diseases.

--Mark Hill (talk) 16:07, 21 August 2015 (AEST) I think you will have 3 students and therefore will exist as a group.

--Z3251292 (talk) 17:29, 21 August 2015 (AEST) hi all,sorry that I still could not make my way to uni today due to illness. I will definitely be back next week. I have added few sub-headings to the points you guys setup, feel free to change them. BTW, would you like to pick one of the 5 topics for now? and start working on it? or there was some good arrangement already? please let me know.

--Z3292373 (talk) 20:51, 24 August 2015 (AEST) Hey, ummm sorry i lead us astray putting up those headings female fertility had been taken so we have to pick another. I put up the list of ones left. My choice would be three parent ivf. So ill do a bit of research and on that now (add some headings)just 'cuase i got some free time, but by all means if you guys would like to do something else that interests you I'm more then happy to change.

--Z3251292 (talk) 13:19, 27 August 2015 (AEST) Hi all, I am good with your choice. let's work on 3 person embryo. i have added few papers I find good on this topic.

Peer Reviews

This wiki page does well in covering a lot of areas relating to the topic, however the website does not outline the information found/used quite clear enough or to the right extent. The page would benefit largely in focusing much more attention to the mechanics of the process itself and how it physically works. There is lots of information regarding other various aspects relating to the topic, however the fundamentals of the topic are not clearly discussed on the page, and it is not clear what goes on in the process.

The page should also fix up some grammatical and syntax errors. Read through the page carefully and ensure all paragraphs make sense ensuring that the quality of the information portrayed is fully appreciated. To also make the page clearer, some thought should be given to rethinking the order of the subheadings. Having a natural cohesion throughout the page as a whole is important – some subheadings do not fit into place correctly and could be moved around a little bit. Also having linking sentences within paragraphs – involving each subheading with others and the topic as a whole – will make the page much more cohesive.

The page used a good amount of supporting pubmed articles, hwoever more images/media files could be used to break up the concentrated use of text. The video used is relevant and informative – however there is no copyright information.--Z5015534 (talk) 22:44, 10 October 2015 (AEDT)

Hi guys! I'll start of by saying that the images and video you have included are excellent and are relevant to your topic of discussion. Also, you have a large number of reliable references which is good to see. However you have yet to include a hand drawn image, which is required for the wiki page. I feel like you could probably eliminate the typed out 'timeline of mitochondrial donation' and instead use this as an opportunity to use a hand drawn image of the timeline. Furthermore, the timeline under 'cystoplasmic transfer' feels a bit awkward and unnecessary. You could probably include this timeline alongside the 'timeline of mitochondrial donation'.

Under the 'Technical Progression' section it would be best to incorporate human embryo, mouse and human models under a sub-sub heading, as at the moment it feels a bit jumbled.

I would also recommend moving the 'Benefits' heading towards the end of the page. It feels odd reading about the benefits of three person embryos before I gain a proper understanding of how they work. Also it might be worth talking about the disadvantages (if there are any) to three person embryos to balance out the 'benefits' section. As has been previously stated, make sure you sort out the copyright information for your video as it would be a shame to lose marks if it was missing. Also, don't forget to add the 'student template' to the 'Swapping mitochondrial DNA mammalian oocytes' image as it is currently absent.

The entire project is presented simplistically and all the content is relevant and easy to understand. Majority of the flaws I found were based around poor grammar and syntax which could be fixed up with some editing. Below is a more detailed breakdown of some of the things you could fix.

Firstly, I liked that the introduction was brief and concise and gives the reader a basic understanding of the topic of three person embryo. The video was also informative and provided some background information around the topic. I was informed that mitochondrial DNA was the major factor concerning this topic however there was a lack of information about its importance to the body so a short summary could be included along with some examples of diseases it could cause.

Also, the use of a timeline to present the history is a great idea and I think it could be improved and would look more aesthetically pleasing if it were to be placed into a table. I also think the 1990s, 2000s and 2010s label could be removed to make it look less clustered since they aren’t particularly necessary.

Some information under the heading ‘Technical Progression’ has yet to be filled in but from what is there I’d like to suggest exchanging the bullet points for numbering instead for the information under ‘Pronuclear transfer’ and ‘Polar body transfer’ since they sounded like sequence steps as opposed to separate points.

Finally, I found the layout of the table under the heading ‘Legal status’ to be very well put together. There are however some countries placed under the incorrect continents and I found that the order was easily changed and mixed up. I also noticed that several of the countries were linked to the same sources which made the information very unspecific. Instead of just links I think a few sentences explaining the legislation would be more informative.

I liked how you guys started the introduction and provides partially a brief overview of what your project is about. But I believe it is not enough to allow the audience an insight to your project page. This is something that needs to be worked on and maybe add some images also. However, the choice of short video used in the introduction is great. This is definitely a benefit for your page as it will reinforce the information you have been trying to get across. Like I mentioned, one thing you could work on is adding images and explaining the content in more depth. There is great amount of reference at the end of the page in the reference list which is fantastic!, however there is no in- text referencing in each section such as introduction or in some of the parts of the “Technical Progression” like “Cytoplasmic transfer” or “Spindle-chromosome transfer”. Having in-text referencing will allow the audience to know exactly where the information was read from and for the interest of the audience can read that specific paper in detail.

I also noticed that there are no information for “Benefits” and “Legal Status” or there is limited information for such headings like “Ethics”. I’m assuming you didn’t get the chance to upload information there or you haven’t had the time. This is something you need to work on so that the audience has some note of what this page is about. Also you need to change the format of the page for example it is to move the 'Benefits' heading towards the end of the page after the audience gained a good level of understanding of the project. You included some great images but be careful with copyright as I didn’t see it. But also consider some more images, tables, diagrams as well as hand drawn images in some sections, to make it more inviting and not overwhelming with just content. I do appreciate that the section of “Technical Progression” is subdivided into “Human Model”, timeline” and etc. But maybe consider adding in the current research, historic research, limitations and disadvantages to ensure that you can get all the marks possible by addressing all the key concepts. The timeline is a great idea that outlines the significant progresses and in turn helps put major events into perspective, making it more effective for students to study and understand.

Well done on making the “Glossary” at the end. This is exactly what I would have expected to see and I used it while I was reading through your page. Also it is great to see the table in the “Prohibited” section but I would suggest you to write some sentences explaining the legislation rather than just pasting the links.

Overall, this project page has room for improvement by giving certain sections of the page the attention they deserve. Images are imperative in allowing a balance between text and the image itself. Diagrams, tables and animations can sometimes be refreshing, and less overwhelming to see them among paragraphs of content. Try and work on time management, or set a group deadline that everyone has to meet so that all the information can be well up before the due date so your group can have time to edit and add images and play around with the page comfortably. Goodluck!

It would be nice if the history section could start earlier in time e.g. who came up with the idea of 3 person embryos. It kind of feels as though 3 person embryos popped out of nowhere. This is just a small nuance but the first sentence in “Hereditary mitochondrial Disease” doesn't really make sense. It sounds incomplete. I think you have too many timelines going on in your page and it makes it a bit confusing. There is one under “History” and another timeline in “technical progression”. I understand they may be timelines for different things, but it’s all too much history. Maybe the “technical progression” timeline could be simplified into a paragraph?

Some sections have too many subsections e.g. “technical progression”, and this makes the section messy and hard to read. It is however good for the table of contents though as it makes it easier to specify what you want to read on the page so my suggestion would be to keep some subheading but cut down a bit. You guys are listing papers to read too often. People want to have the information summarized for them on a wiki page, not have to outsource all the information themselves. It’s too time consuming and if they wanted to read a bunch of articles, they would go on PubMed themselves. However, I do like that some articles have been listed but maybe cut it down to one or two great ones instead of 4-5 etc.

I really like the table under the subheading “prohibited”, however, it would be nice to have a little summary next to the links about what each countries stance is, because again it’s too time consuming to have to read all those links. I also think some sections need a lot more work e.g. “ethics” and “benefits” and some more words could be added to the glossary. For example, a definition of what the word gamete mean would be good as, whilst we may know what it means, other people who view your page may not.

I really likes the images you used in “technical” progression. They were easy to understand and simplified the text a lot. It would be good however to add a few more images, perhaps to “history”. Some hand-drawn ones would be good. You've got a good amount of references in there, just maybe add a few more. This indicates that you have done significant research and they appear to be correctly cited. The key points of your topic are clearly described and I feel as though your intro., whilst short, really opens up the topic well. Your page relates well to the learning aims of embryology.

To conclude, I think you've got a great framework and some really good information in there. Just makes sure your page doesn't look too busy and is easy to read. A little bit more work needs to be done in some of the sections and a bit more technical touch ups and you should be good!

Your group’s topic looks very interesting! You have addressed the key points of your topic, and the placement of the video gives the reader a great overview of your project.


COMMENDATIONS:

• Information has been organised well most of the time. Good use of bullet points and subheadings.

• The table under “Prohibitions” is a great way of summarising information, and it was easy to read.

• I like the addition of a glossary, however, more terms could be added here as a lot of jargon has been used in your text.

• Cytoplasmic transfer images were great as they aided the text well. These images could be re-sized as some of the text is blurry.


RECOMMENDATIONS:

• Be mindful of spelling and capitalisation, e.g. “Hereditary Mitochondrial Disease” rather than “Hereditory mitochndrial Disease.”

• In terms of formatting, more spacing between major headings will make reading the page easier and will allow your information to flow.

• I recommend adopting a set formatting scheme for each section: i.e. make sure that the subheadings are all the same size, that they are in bold/italic (if that is what you intended).

• Some references and PMIDs are placed throughout the page. These should all be under your References heading at the end of the page.

• Information is missing under certain headings, e.g. “Mitochondria Linked Infertility.” I’m assuming that information from the two links provided will be summarised for the final submission.

• Hand drawn image is absent – maybe you could hand draw one of your timelines? (Seeing that both of them currently take the same format/structure).


Great job so far!

Thus far, I think this page has a good layout to be a successful page on Three Person Embryos. The headings and subheadings are relevant and show that you have conducted literature searches to deduce what information needs to be covered. I suggest moving “Benefits” below “Technical Progression” as it is important for the reader to understand the process of three person embryos, before learning its advantages. You could also add information about disadvantages and controversial issues.

On a positive note, I am impressed with the way you have set up headings under “Technical Progression”. The consistency of discussing a model and current research provides a systematic approach to the viewing of your page, making it easy to understand. Delving further in each of these subheadings would provide a greater understanding of the current technologies available, such as including limitations and advantages, and statistics of their success rates. The timeline under “Cytoplasmic Transfer” could probably be incorporated with the timeline under “History” to equalize the amount of content under each heading.

The content under each heading still needs work in terms of editing and elaboration. There are quite a lot of grammatical and spelling errors such as “Timeline of Mitocondrial Donation” (missing an ‘h’ in mitochondrial), and some sentences aren’t finished. Proofreading would be key to making the information more understandable and effective to the reader. Information seems to be lacking under a few headings especially “Benefits”, “Hereditary Mitochondrial Disease”, “Mitochondria linked Infertility” and “Other approaches”. To make it a bit easier for yourselves, you may want to consider using a table, flow chart for pathogenesis of the disease, and a detailed diagram of the relevant heading. You have provided a table to explain the "Prohibited Section" however a very short description/summary of each source in the table would be very helpful.

I also noticed you have not included many images, videos or tables. These visual aids really help the reader to understand the content in front of them, and also keep their interest in the topic so it imperative to focus on them as much as the content.

The references have all been cited correctly and have shown you have performed adequate research to cover the important information for this topic. As you add more information, more references should be present within the body of your page.

Overall, I think this page has a really good framework for further information to be added. With more editing, content and diagrams, you are sure to produce a wonderful Wiki page.

Your project instills a great first impression on a visitor to the page! It is a well designed webpage that doesn’t come across as overwhelming and too wordy encouraging and drawing the reader to explore your page. Your choice of content is relevant and provides a good understanding of the topic so far. The introduction is nice and succinct, explaining easily and clearly what the topic is about with a great video that complements the introduction. Together they give the reader good background information on the topic, and are taught in a way that’s easy for someone with no prior knowledge on the topic or in embryology in general to understand.

Furthermore, the timelines you provided, the ethics section and the table on the legal status of the technique is a good way of showing how far the concept has come and good at placing the technique in the context of how it has been translated into modern society. I really like that you have included animal models in explaining the various techniques, provided the current research available, and included further reading. This is very relevant and interesting for other embryology students and researchers who visit your page! The diagrams you have already chosen are very appropriate and explain the technique clearly to visual learners and are very engaging.

In improving on your page I think the main focus is to elaborate on some key points further and add a few more diagrams and pictures so you can maintain a perfect balance of words and images and the engaging layout you already have begun. For example, maybe for the section “hereditary mitochondrial disease” you can talk about the type of hereditary diseases there are. Also, some of your wording and grammar need further editing so make sure you go through and reread your work.

Other things you should edit include, adding a reference to your introductory paragraph and maybe clarifying that three person embryos are now legal in the UK since your video says “its on the threshold of acceptance”. Also check your copyright on some of the images such as the one that says “Copyright © 2015 BBC. The BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites. Read about our approach to external linking”, I am not sure if this means you are allowed to use it so just clarify this.

Overall, you have great progress on your page so far, it has a great teaching element to it and shows extensive research and citing into the project!

It’s great to begin with a introductory video which defines your topic. I do suggest finding a reference for the first paragraph for the introduction. Besides that, references have been cited correctly and shows that you have conducted extensive research, but remember to reference as you add information ( [##] ). I think you guys did a great job with the heading and subheadings; it shows us that you have done extensive literature research, and have came to a conclusion as to what information was relevant. Just a grammatical error made in “Timeline of Mitocondrial Donation” which is missing a H in mitochonidral. I suggest proof reading all the text before uploading! This will make it easier for the audience to understand and also for yourself! As to the “Benefit” heading, I think it will be a good idea to add information and case studies on disadvantages towards three person embryos.

Nice to see that you guys have included a timeline, this shows the progress made throughout the years. But I think there is still information that can be added into this area; for example: different possible approaches or more controversial issues that has emerged. “Technical Progression” is an impressive choice of heading; I found it very interesting to read. The cytoplasmic transfer images used were great! They were very easy to understand. The “Timeline” under “Cytoplasmic transfer” could be merged with the history timeline heading above.

Overall, I think more information and content needs to be added under all the headings and subheadings. To make it easier for the audience to read, I suggest adding detailed images, tables and flowcharts. It will be more eye-catching for readers and will keep them interested. I see that you guys have a table under “Prohibited Section” however that just leads to another link, rather than having the link there; I think it would be a great improvement if there is a short summary of all the sources found.

I think your page is organised and formatted very well! With more information/content, detailed diagrams and tables; it will further improve your Wiki Page! Good Luck.

Firstly, this is a very impressive wiki and I think you guys are setting the bar very high. The resources you have used and referenced are of really high quality and demonstrate that you have carried out extensive research and identified the information that is most relevant and important. The introductory video and all the images you have included are awesome and really help to solidify the information that you are presenting; they also add more depth to the page and provide further explanation and clarification of the information. The "Technical Progression" section is really great, well structured and provides a lot of explanation about the procedure that I found aided my understanding about major the concepts of the page.

My suggestions to improve your wiki page would be to have a second look at the layout and headings; I found they were difficult to follow and disrupted the flow of the page, for example the heading "Benefits" followed immediately by "Mitochondrial linked information" which was followed again almost immediately by "Hereditary Mitochondrial Disease". These headings made me stop and think about whether there was some information missing and I was just a little confused about whether the two latter headings came under the first. I really liked the inclusion of the legislation and ethics surrounding the topic (very interesting reading), however I am a bit concerned that they are the biggest portions of the page; I think this would be easily rectified by simple adding further explanations of the current research and journal articles that you have referred to instead of providing only one or two sentences about each. Lastly, it would be really interesting to present information about the controversial opinions/incidents surrounding the topics and also about the disadvantages of the procedures.

Over all, I think you guys have done an awesome job thus far and with a few minor changes the page will be amazing! Good Luck!
