Biology Personal Statement

When I was in high school, I noticed how my grandfather used to heal some sicknesses; such as diabetus by using the natural products; for instance, extracts from regional plants. I remember when my grandmother was diagnosed as diabetus patiant and how the diabetus affected her lifestyle; and how many medications were described to her and how she was unsatisfied about the changing in her lifestyle. I remember how my grandfather used one of plant extracts from traditional folk medicine in my country to control her blood glucose level. That approach of treatment fascinated me and encouraged me to become curious about what the dibetus is, and what the mechanism of this disease, and how I can understand the mechansm of this disease in biological system. After high school, I was wondering about the major that is dealing with and meeting my interest toward Pharmacological and toxicological sciences until my grandfather who was the godfather for me at that time encouraged me to …show more content…
Additionally, my graduate project and practical work in the Medicinal Chemistry Department in the final year of B.Sc. Pharmacy taught me how to behave in a laboratory, including key areas such as health and safety and a basis for good laboratory practice. This project was about design, chemical synthesis, and biological evaluation of small molecules as anti-proliferative agent to combat the cancer disease. This project allowed me to acquire a greater knowledge of a variety of skills and approaches required in this field of scientific research, such as In vetro and In vivo biological studies in order to evaluate the pharmacological activity. In addition, molecular modeling, microwave-assisted chemical synthesis, spectroscopic techniques, separation, purification
