PABLO VALENZUELA

Hi guys! How you doing?
Today I wanna talk about a big person. As you know (I write about in another blog) I study Biochemistry. An today, I'm gonna talk about a big biochemical, and Chilean!
His name is Pablo Valenzuela. Doctor Valenzuela studied Biochemstry in Universidad de Chile and is a Doctor in Chemistry in the University of Northwestern (PhD.)
In the year 1974 it received the scholarship of the International Scientific Fellow (NIH) and came back to The United States. In 1981 Chiron Corporation fused the biotechnological company, where it clones and it sequenced the genome of the AIDS virus.
The most importants investigation are the discovery of the hepatitis C, and the creation of the first vaccine for the hepatitis B.
I love the way of Pablo Valenzuela to mix the science and the business. I think his work it's awesome, and is Chilean and study here, in the same University of us! Doctor Pablo is the father of the biotechnology, one of the first man to mix the biology and the chemistry to make medicines; and with that, heal importants diseases of the human being.
What a great guy!

  1. How interesting! I think he has also worked with Ramon Latorre, another Chilean biochemist :o

HOLY HOLIDAYS

Hi guys! How are you? Today i'm gonna talk about the holidays; that wonderful time to relax and rest of the year.  I think the vacations are so important. For me, this year was amazing but at the same time so exhausting; because the university is not like the school, and this months I live alone, so, that it's a little bit different what I was accustomed.  The holidays, I think I really deserve it!  So, first; I just want sleep and relax, ride in my bike and spend time with my family and my friends. I love the summer, because; for us, what  we live in south america, is in the summer when we celebrate Christmas and the "New Year"; so, at the same time, we have holidays, gifts and summer!  I don't really think what I will do in the summer; but I want to ride in my bike, to cross the forest and breathe fresh air. Of course, I love the beach and I think I will go with my family to our cabin in the beach. I love spend time there because the sea is amazing,...

YOUR NEW JOB

Hi Guys! How you doing? Back to the little vacations we have. Today I'm gonna talk about future jobs. I decided to study biochemistry because it's one of this career what, when you graduate of it, can work in a lot of places, you can investigate, be a teacher of university; or maybe high school if you want, work in a laboratory, you can be a businessman, or businesswoman I don't know, you can discover about everything about science. As a biochemist, you can work in molecular biology, in medicine and health, in neuroscience, in chemistry and, of course; in biochemistry. I would like to work in molecular biology, as a investigator; I love organism called "extremophiles", I think it's a interesting area, not to popular, but so important for the science. I imagine working in the laboratory, of course; investigating and discover new things about this incredible organisms; but at the same time, I imagine working in ground,I mean, searching this organisms in their...

A DRUG WHAT DOESN'T SEEMS LIKE A DRUG

Hi guys!!! How you doing? Let's gonna talk about something so popular in this century, or in our society. Let's talk about drugs. I want to explain, a drug is not only marihuana, heroin, cocaine, methamphetamines, hallucinogens, or inhalants; for me, a drug  it's everything can make addiction in a person. So, we can find drugs like chocolate, candies, sports, medicine, gym or, even social medias.  Nowadays, social medias are in almost everything. We can find they in computers, tablets, smartphones or even in a T.V. Social medias like facebook (one of the most popular), intagram, twitter, whatsapp, tumblr, pinterest or youtube. Well, it's true, the social medias are importants to communicate all the people and are one of the most importants step of this decade, but can make addiction to, so, in a excess are bad. I think it's a drug like a candies or the gym, not similar to heroine or methamphetamines for example, but powerfulls to make addiction.  Of course,...
