My life sound track

Imagen
Music is something universal that connects us all  I really like music and the feelings it gives me, s ometimes  I can escape reality a little bit. I think that  life without music is a mistake. There are songs that become special or that remind us of specific moments both good and bad. ReallIy wouldn't know what to start my sound track with, but when I think about my childhood, cumbias, romantic songs, songs from the 80's and latin rock come to mind. Where artists like Amar Azul, Proyecto X, Marco Antonio Solis, Chayanne, Luis Miguel, Juan Aantonio Labra, Juan Gabriel, Soda Stereo, Enanitos Verdes, Virus among others, sound. I still suffer with songs like "Un siglo sin ti" by chayanne and with "Querida" by Juan Gabriel or motivated with songs like "Ahora te puedes" marchar de luis miguel Then One Direction appears and I was a big fan, until this day I continue to listen their music. Among his most iconic songs we can mention "Story of my life...

The best place I have been

Imagen
 I haven't really traveled much but of the few that I can mention there are two that are wonderful for me. The first place I want to mention is "La laguna del Inca", which is located in the Andes mountain range in the Portillo area, located in the province of Los Andes, Vaparaíso region in Chile.The lagoon has an oval shape and the color of the water is super beautiful. It has its nice things in summer and winter, it is a good place to take photos and have a quiet moment. In winter you can go and enjoy the snow, you can stay at ski portillo and enjoy the experience even better The other place that is wonderful is "El monumento natural el Morado"is a high mountain next to the town of Baños Morales, in the commune of San José de Maipo. It has an area of 3,009 hectares, in which it is Andean flora is made up of at least 300 species between native and exotic. Like the previous place, it is an excellent location to take pictures, make trekking and also to connect wit...

My experience using blogs

Imagen
Use blogs was very nice and interesting because I had never written blogs before I only knew the word blog. Sometimes, at the beginning, when we had to write, it was difficult for me because I had no ideas or simply did not know how to start, I was little afraid of being wrong and with the free topic I had a kind of mini collapse because it blocked me and I didn’t know what to write about but it happened quickly, now I would even add more free topics.  It was fascinating to read the opinions of my colleagues about all the different topics that we wrote since a short biography of ourselves, why we chose our career or who we admire and know their points of view. I think that improve my skills to write in english and expanded my vocabulary. In my opinión is a good methodology because I think that grammar is the base to learn a new language, besides writting improves our ability to express ourselves. 

Stephen Hawking

Stephen William Hawking was a british theoretical physicist, astrophysicist, cosmologist and scientific popularizer. One of the main characteristics of his personality was his contribution to the scientific debate, sometimes publicly betting with other scientists, the best known case is his participation in the discusión on the conservation of information in black holes. In college, Stephen began showing symptoms of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, a fatal neurodegenerative disease that results in the death of motor neurones in the brain and spinal cord. The first symptoms appeared during his stay in Oxford, just before his first marriage. The disease progressed, after a few years he was completely inmobile and after a throat surgery he lost the ability to speak. However, this did not prevent him from marrying twice, raising three children, maintaining his high scientific and public activity and being one of today´s most renowned scientists. He is now one of the most influential th...

My favorite subject

Imagen
In this weird and different semester online without know how works every subject in a normal semester even without knowing the faculty or anything, I would say that my favorite subject could be General Chemistry I. We have chairs and seminars, they teach us to interpret transformations of matter, solve qualitative and quantitative problems and scientific method from chemistry. We start with atomic theory, atomic structure and periodic system, then we saw chemical bond where we study the different types of bonds and molecular forms, also nomenclature where we name different inorganic compounds and a little of quantum chemistry. Lately we are studying different types of chemical reactions and how to balace them. I like Chemistry because Chemistry is life and is an excellent way to understand the world that we live in. I really enjoy study this subject, sometimes is a little bit difficult but I still love it.

Joan Massagué Solé

Joan Massagué graduated in pharmacy at the University of Barcelona. In 1982, he moved to Brown University, where he discovered the insulin receptor. In 1989 he began to lead the department of cell biology and genetics at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York, where he accepts the direction of the cancer biology and genetics program in 2003. His research has been key to know the mechanisms that allow to stop cell proliferation. Thanks to his work, it has been posible to identify the genes that control the metastasis of tumor cells from breast cancer to other organs. Recently, the line of research that he has carried out for ten years has culminated in the Discovery of the general mechanism of colonization of metastasis. Currently, he is working on the creation of antibodies that prevent this process. I think he still has a lot to contribute, he should have a guaranteed place among the greatest scientists in history. I like him because research   is one of the ár...

Why chemistry and pharmacy?

It is common t osee them working in pharmacies, but that is only a part of everything they can do, because their extensive training and knowledge can be performed in various areas such as legal medical service, pharmaceutical laboratories, drug marketing, teaching, research among others. Within the pharmacy career we will learn things like extract and synthesize drugs, so I can cook and start my business, like Walter White and as he said, “Chemistry is, well technically Chemistry ...
