would argue that the ends justifies the means. The Tuskegee Experiments is known to be an example for the concept of “Rights”. During this experiment, the U.S. Public Health Service took a group of poor black people and used them as guinea pigs in syphilis experiment. They had black doctors and nurses who cooperated for the good of science. They lied to people saying that they had a cure, in order to study them. This is an example of a lack of informed consent. There are many examples of…

Reflection Paper Evaluating Bad Science Evaluating research and determining good research from bad research is not as simple as one might presume the process to be. There are many factors to delve into in disseminating the data and its supposed findings. As simplistic as it sounds when one compares the old adage of "you can 't judge a book by its cover", well the same could be true of a supposed landmark medical discovery. Research is and should be timely, covering a broad spectrum of samples,…

life with his love Liberty. But living in a formidable society for most of his life, shows what The World Council has been hiding. The totalitarianism community changed their lives. It destroys the inventions of technology, and ignores the natural science Earth brings their society. Adolf Hitler once quoted, “The government is lucky that people never think.” The Jewish religion had been discriminated and murdered for a “benefit” of Germany. Hitler and his control delineates the society…

and solve a lot of it’s problems. Technology is only designed to increase the quality of life for society and the people make it up. Technology has been around since the dawn of man, it has just became more advanced than in previous generations. Science is driven by the wonders of the human race and is executed through the advancements and inventions of different kinds of technology. Technology has made life easier for people and become easier as more advanced technology becomes available to…

Once Victor realizes the the creature, of his experiment, is far worse than he ever imagined, Victor goes into a form of shock and falls extremely ill. Victor’s childhood friend discovers him at this fragile state and nurses him back to health. Victor realizes that without friendship and companions, he is nothing. Without friends Victor is lonely and no longer is the same person as he once was, as he was raised to be. Victor realizes that this person he was when he created the monster was…

quarter century, feminist have had a substantial impact across a range of disciplines within science” (Lloyd 193). With primatology, she explains that because of feminism, female animals became more of a vocal point for research instead of what they were-- unimportant background characters. Lloyd’s other feminist contribution (which I believe is of greater importance) is the movement of change for women’s health standards. This began when feminist demanded for records and access of clinical…

centuries and centuries to come is, “How did humans advance so far in science?”. It all had to start with an understanding of ourselves first rather than our surroundings. That is where the understanding of our anatomy comes in. Anatomy is the study concerned with the bodily structure of humans and other living organisms. Anatomy has been studied for over many centuries and we have barely skimmed the surface of this vast branch of science. There are still many unanswered questions waiting to be…

In my high school experience, I have been blessed with many great teachers and advisors who have helped me develop academically. However, I learned at COSMOS, a science summer program at UC Davis, that learning goes beyond lectures in a classroom. At Davis, I experienced a college learning environment vastly different from high school. Every lecture day, I had a lab after lecture that applied concepts to real life. In the corresponding labs for Organic Chemistry, for instance, I made biofuel…

The concept of race has historically been flawed at best. This type of human categorization, which draws no basis of biological evidence, has been used for centuries to successfully subjugate large groups of people, paving the way for white supremacists to gain even more emotional, and ergo economic, control over the American working class. Patrick Appel is not the first to delve into the myth of “race”, but he does offer a well-rounded, professionally composed vindication that responds to…

disadvantages and advantages of the scientific advancement seen in Gattaca. Unlike what most would expect from a film about such an incredible breakthrough in the world of science, most of the imagery is negative. This is clear when viewing it from the perspective of a character like Vincent. Rather than simply boost the human body’s health standard, the standards are both lifted and a new source of prejudice. Genetic modification at birth is very helpful medically, but if there is no way of…
