For as long as I can remember‚ science has always interested me. Also‚ I have always been fairly good at it. When I was younger‚ I would ask all of my family members what their profession was‚ and I remember my aunt told me she was a scientist. I did not exactly know what that meant at the time‚ but I knew it sounded interesting. I think anything with science interests me because I like the fact that things can be explained through science. I have always been fascinated to know how things work and

In “A Life of Its Own” Michael Specter‚ a journalist of the New Yorker‚ talks about synthetic biology‚ that is to say the application of the principles of molecular biology towards genetically engineering useful organisms. He claims that the opportunities posed by this technology can give birth to a new era of biological engineering while replacing the past methods of industrialization. Throughout the article Specter provides examples and presents evidence to support his ideas. Indeed‚ he includes

Studying abroad allows me to set out on an enormous adventure to experience a new culture and study biology in the very same spot as one of the world’s most famous influential scientists‚ Charles Darwin. I chose to participate in the Field Biology Capstone on the Galapagos Islands because of the unique wildlife‚ history‚ and opportunities that make a trip to the Galapagos unparalleled. This experience will enable me to grow in a number of ways and learn many skills and lessons that simply can’t be

They believe that it is probably related to a combination of biology‚ genetics‚ and the student’s environment” (Powell Driver‚ 2013‚ Section 5.4). While you may encounter very young children who exhibit behaviors similar to the characteristics of ADHD‚ it is unlikely that they will be specifically diagnosed with ADHD. However

A new research and training facility at Imperial that will construct DNA at industrial levels has been announced today by the Universities Minister. Designing‚ constructing and testing DNA is a crucial element of synthetic biology‚ an area of science which combines biology and engineering to create new biologically based devices that will help solve a range of different global challenges. These devices are made from harmless cells‚ such as yeast cells. Manmade yeast genes could then be used to

(Bleier) I do not believe that psycho-sexual gender differences are merely determined by biology‚ and I intend to provide evidence supporting my thesis in this first section of my paper. Problems with the Sociobiological Perspective The first reason I have to doubt that these differences are determined by biology has to do with Sociobiologists’ explanation that behaviors are able to be encoded into or represented by any concrete genetic combinations
