Critical thinking is a series of thinking processes to assess judgment, assumption, argument or claim in a thorough and rational manner. Critical thinking is the most fundamental skills that can be achieved by postgraduate students which applicable to other context as well, or termed as a transferable skill. Postgraduate students are primarily working on a research project which suits well with their own interest. On the daily basis, students are using scientific approach to figure out the…

those who are sick cannot tolerate high temperatures and poor air quality. High temperatures and the increase in smog can affect those with “heart and respiratory disease” and asthma. Global warming is also contributing to diseases such as “malaria, dengue fever, tick-bone encephalitis, and diarrheal illnesses.” Insects such as mosquitoes are carrying illness and viruses that can weaken human life, especially those in high elevated regions. An increase in carbon dioxide can cause plants to grow…

Physician-assisted suicide should be legalized for those with a condition that is causing them suffering or cannot be treated. This practice is illegal in most countries due to the overwhelming misunderstanding on the idea and the odd obsession with forcing people to survive against their will. Hopefully through educating the public on what assisted suicide is, what conditions meet the requirements for assisted suicide, and how the procedure actually goes, the practice will be legalized and help…

United States; in fact they are so scarce that cities and countries are going to war over a waterway for drinking water. Without drinking water a city could sure die soon, just like with the quicker spread of diseases. Diseases, such as Malaria and Dengue Fever are going to spread faster with the heat level rising, which means more of the population dead. Even things as minor as allergies will be increased when more pollen is produced, because Carbon Dioxide levels have made plants increase the…

Chagas is a disease transmitted by blood sucking insects called Triatomine bugs which carry the parasite Trypanosoma Cruzi. They become infected with Chagas by biting an infected animal or human, then they carry the disease on to another person. The bugs live in the homes that are built of mud, adobe, straw and palm thatch. They hide in the walls and roofs of the home, coming out at night to feed on the inhabitants. After biting and ingesting a person’s blood the bug defecates on the host,…

One of the viruses that extend in massive areas of the world, and compel the scientists to look again for this virus is a ZIKA virus. As a result of the rapid prevalence of a ZIKA virus in Asia, Africa and America, it classifies now as an emerging virus, on the other hand, the lack of biological research leads to Increasing the cases of ZIKV in the world. This project sheds light on the mystery novel that allows ZIKV invasion and infection the host cells. A penetration process of ZIKA virus…

Like many of the Asian countries, an improvement to Vietnam’s healthcare sector is met with a plethora of challenges.

Discoveries in the field of genetics have given the world hope for a brighter future. With promises of disease eradication, increased intelligence, and longer lifespans, it is no wonder that people believe that this altering our genetic code is the solution to all of our problems. However, with all of these potential benefits, there come potential dangers. A new scientific breakthrough has come our way. Referred to as CRISPR, this new technology is the easiest, cheapest, and most reliable way of…
