This document discusses the elements of suspense in stories. It defines suspense as the uncertainty or anxiety a reader feels about what will happen next. There are four main elements that create suspense: foreshadowing, mystery, dilemma, and reversal. Foreshadowing provides clues about future events, mystery withholds information or includes unexplained elements, dilemma puts characters in dangerous situations with choices to make, and reversal involves sudden changes in the plot. Suspense is also built through details, settings, characters' fears and past experiences. The villain, other characters, and themes about people and the mind can deepen suspense further. Suspense keeps readers engaged by constantly leaving them wondering what will occur.Recently uploaded (20)

The intersection of AI and pharmaceutical formulation science highlights significant blind spots—systemic gaps in pharmaceutical development, regulatory oversight, quality assurance, and the ethical use of AI—that could jeopardize patient safety and undermine public trust. To move forward effectively, we must address these normalized blind spots, which may arise from outdated assumptions, errors, gaps in previous knowledge, and biases in language or regulatory inertia. This is essential to ensure that AI and formulation science are developed as tools for patient-centered and ethical healthcare.
