Symposium

Reading journal articles for my classes, I was fascinated by the challenges and problem-solving process of research in general. Since Cooper Union has limited resources for research as a small engineering college, I was delighted to learn of this opportunity. With such passion in research, I was able to have an independent study course in school with one of the biological engineering professors and researched the DNA synthesis process. As a member of an International Genetically Engineered…

learned that they were similar ideas but, in particular, the Roman genius was a divine nature that every person was born with and died with. It was an outside force that gave a person their various abilities. This and other research I did in Plato’s “Symposium” and some writings from the Renaissance not only verified the credibility of her viewpoint but added to my understanding of the concept that she was describing. My literature class later verified this assumption. Previously, I had always…

source of food. If the climate continues to change, the crops will not grow the same and there will be a shortage in health foods such as fruits and vegetables, the food groups that cannot be made the same in a factory. The 2014 World Food Prize Symposium stated that, “growing enough food for our expanding population has become the greatest challenge in human history” (Dimick,…

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation and Sequencing (ChIP-seq) of Heat Shock Factor (HSF) Temporal Binding Sites during the Critical Period of 8-12 Hr After Egg Lay (AEL) in Drosophila melanogaster Embryogenesis Background Heat Shock Response was discovered by the Italian scientist Ferrucio Ritossa, when he saw puffs in the Drosophila polytene chromosome on inducing them with heat. It was later discovered that this Heat Shock Response was regulated by a transcription factor called Heat Shock Factor…

Saving the black footed ferret It was almost 8 am and John I were getting ready for our trip to Grass lands National Park. John is one of my best friends we both graduated from the University of Wisconsin with a degree on wild life. In the excitement of our trip we couldn’t sleep all night and now we were running late Due to getting up late. I was really excited because I had been studying the black footed ferret for a years now. And I was getting the chance to see it in person now for the first…

Bio-pesticides are ecofriendly pesticides that are obtained by naturally occuring substances(biochemicals), plants and microbes. All the natural products are not biopesticides. Some are chemical pesticides if they acts on the nervous system in the pest. Through the use of biopesticides in the wider way, health programme and agriculture can be beneficially effected. There are many disadvantages that associated with the use of chemicals pesticides like genetic variations in the plant of…

consistently changing or shape-shifting, like the Greek characters, thus changing ones identity. And with the change of identity come the change of treatment of the self. Ovid’s proposition in his Metamorphoses, In the Flesh by Victoria Pitt, Plato’s Symposium: “Ladder of Love”, and Bodies Under Siege by Armando Favazza , convey the notion of body modification as it relates to the treatment of the identity of Gregor in Kafka’s’ “Metamorphosis”. The significant alteration of…

To the Admissions Department of the Geneva Academy of International Humanitarian Law and Human Rights, When talking about transitional justice, two pictures come to my mind. As an international human rights observer in Guatemala, I had the chance to follow transitional justice cases. One of them was the Sepur Zarco’s woman case, historic for being the first criminal trial about sexual violence committed by the army during Guatemala’s armed conflict. It was observing one of the testimony…

allowed their customer leases elapse and terminated manufacturing the EV1 2003. In the end, the EV1 cost GM over $1 billion. General Motors created a model for an electric car that they displayed at the Environmental Protection Agency’s First Symposium on Low Pollution Power Systems Development. There are numerous matters that are indicate growth of the electric vehicle industry. Some significant ideas consist of the falling expenses…

In Paying for the Party, Armstrong and Hamilton developed a theoretical framework, namely “college pathway,” to depict and interpret the differences of the college women’s campus experiences. Pathways are ways that constitute as instituted tracks that lead the individuals to go in certain directions. In the study, the authors use this term to describe, on the one hand, the administration relies on students to help resolve its own operational problems (gaining academic prestige (inter)nationally,…
