Alexander Fleming

In this blog i am going to talk about Alexander Fleming.
He was a London scientist who was born in Dervel, Scotland. (1881-1955), also he was a doctor who worked in London, after that he worked like a military doctor in France, in this job he was stunned by infections caused by bullets, for this reason he decided once the war was finished he would return to seek a new antiseptic.
It is said that all discoveries of alexander were a coincidence, for example the lysine, he found this in the middle of a gangrene research at the same way he found the penicillin in 1928 at age of 48 years old.
I like the job of Alexander because he found a cure for the infections which were one of main causes of death in those years. Some of the diseases cured by penicillin are tuberculosis, bacterial pneumonia, rheumatic fever among others.
It was revolution on the health area because with penicillin the life expectancy was increase a lot

Alexander won a Nobel Prize for the discovery of penicillin in 1945.

My favourite class

In this blog I’m going to talk about my favourite class of the semester… “El químico farmacéutico y su acción” in this class we saw the labor of the pharmacist, I liked this class because it is the pure essence of my college career… the teachers in charge of this class showed us the different areas in which pharmacists can work, the class was divided into four topics: discussion session, informative talks, pharmaceutical terminology and visits of specialized areas. Discussion session, in this part of the class teachers they proposed a particular issue related to the pharmacy and we as students had to investigate and discuss the topic (in my opinion it was a very good session). Informative talks, in this session in these sessions were invited professionals from the different areas in which pharmacist can exercise and they told us their school and professional experiences. Pharmaceutical terminology: in this class professors teach us a small part of the chemical technical langua...

My experience learning a new language!

Well… today I’m going to talk about my experience learning a new language particularly English. To start I would like to point out that I have always had an interest in languages. During my school years I leaned English, this is the language that I have studied the most throughout my life (without taking into account Spanish). About my experience learning English in college I can say that it is more specific than in the school, it is more focused to be able to communicate and it does not deepen so much the teaching of the formal language. For the classes we have two different methodologies. On the one hand there are the classes and on the other hand is the laboratory, where we carry out blogs. In my opinion, blogs are a very didactic way of applying what way learn in classes, it is an integral way to evaluate our way of communicating. Although these two methodologies are very important and necessary, I think that we should have a space where we only speak, to practic...

My favourite music genre

Image
I don't have a favourite music genre but I like many of them. I used to like rock (“linking park”, “green day”, “sr 71”, “mago de Oz” and “ska-p”) and classic music cause I studied music (actually I love this music and I like to play it with my flute or clarinet). Now I think that I like some music genres like pop, tecno, rock (a little), old school music (like Leodan, La nueva ola, Los prisioneros, etc), classic and Chilean music like Anita Tijoux, Novella inc, Tronic, Los Bunkers… I have liked these music genres since I was 14. Before liking a song, first I have to like the lyrics. Again I don’t have a favourite band but I really like Anita Tijoux and I listen frequently to her songs. Here is my favourite Anita Tijoux’s song at this moment… “Somos sur” I need to say that I discovered Shadia Mansour with this song… and now I like her music especially “So serious” and “Al kufiyyeh 3arabeyyeh”      Shadia Mansour and Ani...
