understanding of how our world works as some principles of natural selection do apply to knowledge development: we prefer some variations of knowledge over others due to our ability of perceiving what is suitable e.g. the most suitable model in chemistry, the most relevant motivation theory in business, the most favored idea of the world’s creation. The metaphor nonetheless does not perfectly embody the concept, however, metaphors are not always perfect. Metaphors allow people as knowers to be…
Personal Statement The first day of high school chemistry was the beginning of shaping my love for pharmacy. I instantly fell in love with chemistry from this day. Already having a strong advanced mathematics background from middle school taking algebra, this tied into a lot of the chemistry components that I excelled in. Unsure of what to do after high school and to support myself financially, I joined the Army and served in the National Guard for six years. Becoming a single mother wasn't…
college in Corvallis (Now is called Oregon State University) in 1922, he had a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering. For his postgraduate study Linus went to the California Institute of Technology(A.K.A. Caltech). There, he got his Ph.D in chemistry and mathematical physics in 1925. Once he joined the Caltech faculty in 1927, he continued his research on the formation of chemical bonds between atoms in molecules and crystals. “In 1938, Linus wrote down everything he learned in a book…
I want to be a part of the NSF-REU program because I know I would make a great contribution. In an informal research project for my biology lab course, I led a team of four in a time-crunched, self-created lab. I took up the role of leadership, assigned tasks, organized meetings and worked outside of class hours to complete the testing. Taking charge wasn’t always easy for me but, at the College of Saint Benedict, there is a NSF S-STEM scholarship program called FoCuS. The program provides…
University of Mexico, he received his first degree in chemical engineering. He was a researcher at the National Autonomous University of Mexico in the Institute of Chemistry. He also was the faculty of chemistry there. Not only that, but he was the director and professor at the Universidad Iberoamericana in the School of Chemistry. Luis Miramontes was a deputy Director of Research at the Mexican Institute of Petroleum. He was also a member of many different scientific societies. Some of…
trend but my thought process was quite dissipated since I get admitted department of pharmaceutical science at the University of Dhaka, best institution of Bangladesh. During my undergraduate studies, I gained comprehensive understanding of organic chemistry for two years with sophisticated laboratory experience. This subject gives me the basic idea about chemical process inside biological system. In addition to this, mandatory two years course of Physiology helped…
Green Synthesis of Ibuprofen Green Chemistry is a new approach and perspective of chemistry that can improve human lives and maximize efficiency. It is a branch in chemistry that explores and examines techniques to reduce and eliminate hazardous and harmful substances. These harmful substances effect humans and the environment in multiple ways, the twelve principles of Green Chemistry can help minimize them. The twelve principles include prevention of waste, the design of less hazardous…
The chemistry of carbohydrates, proteins and minerals plays an important role in running the life process of human body. The chemical reactions and their role in the human body are essential as it fuels the body to carry out the life process, to keep the body healthy and to provide body with energy. Structure of Starch It is formed by units of glucose and is a homopolysaccaride. It is found in the vegetable cells and is composed of two types of homopolysaccaride; Amylopectin and amylose.…
The research work regarding the chemical processes within/relating to living organisms is said to be biochemistry, also known as biological chemistry. The complication of life can occur during biochemical process, if we control the information flow through biochemical signaling and through metabolism chemical energy flow. Various study fields like botany, medicines, genetics, Etc.which are areas of life science, are engrossed in research related to biochemical because biochemistry has made it…
the modern science of chemistry.) For a man that lived on this earth only 93 years, he made many strides in his areas of expertise. This was mainly chemistry, physics and molecular biology. He studied the nature of the chemical bond; also with Vitamin C, which he proclaimed could be a preventive for colds. Needless to say, Pauling had made many accomplishments in his lifetime, now it is time to bring these to light. Mr. Pauling’s strides in chemical bonding changed chemistry forever. Not only…
