My blogging experience

Hi partners, today we writing our last blog of the semester and I would like to tell you my process. I have never liked writing much, less about me; because I think it isn’t easy find the words, less in English, this is a big challenge haha. In my first blog, I had much difficult. I never in my life had written a blog or some like this but with the others blog I learned to expound on me and over time, it made easier for me. I liked to much this experience, now I think I can write everything that I propose (well … but not everything). It was interesting investigate about themes associated with our career; know more about my classmates and about my teacher.  I think is easier writing about something I know that something I had never heard before, but in the end I enjoying with that 😃. But I think there were missing topics that we could have talked about, like the area that we want to specialize, more about biology or chemistry, something more related to our departme...

Immunotherapy

As I told you before, my dream is find a cure of some sickness or maybe find a good therapy to improve the life of patients. The immunotherapy is a type of treatment to cancer which consist in stimulate or recover the Immune system against cancer, infections or others sickness as well as reduce the side effects of some aggressive therapies against cancer. This therapy can be used preventatively (for example with vaccine) or for therapeutic purposes  (for example with proteins, with microorganisms genetically modified or with patient cells genetically modified). It is important in the area where I like to develop because the biochemists can produce the vaccine, the proteins and the genetically modified organisms. I fascinate the idea of produce this and improve the lives of others. In Chile the immunotherapy is used principally in cancer patients because is one of the best alternatives to confront this sickness. In the future this practice will remain important like now,...

The most enjoyable subject (for the moment)

Hi guys! Today I will talk about to my favourite in this semester. In general, I think all subject are important and are amazing in this career, but I love Laboratory Technniques ❤ , because I never had laboratory activities in my school and I longed to be in laboratories. Thanks this subject I met the laboratory materials, some chemical compounds what I never had seen before, I learned the laboratory rules, to prepare solutions, did a titration and other things what I don't remember now. This subject is divided in two sections, the theory class and the practical class. The theory class during one hour and the practical class during three hours (the best three hours of the week 😃). In the practical class we often worked alone but the last laboratory we worked in pair and that experience it was nice. In the theory class we are 100 approximately and in the practical class we are 38. We have class with seven teachers: Aida Ahumanda, Braulio Aranda, Inmaculada Cerrato, Jeannet...
