Originally a political science student‚ I made my switch to medicine after realizing the shortcomings of public policy with regards to public health. I came to see the government as a cruise ship‚ while supporting lives of many‚ the vessel itself was incapable of making sudden changes to its course. However‚ physicians functioned differently. They were independent and driven by a force that compelled them to adapt quickly to their environment. I knew that I wanted to be in the field that made the

On/Off Switch For Genes written by Jim Kozubek‚ he talks about how doctors are looking at ways to have genes treat different hereditary illnesses. He explains that the gene therapy’s history is not always easy because scientist cannot control where the new gene is inserted. This then causes problems because they need a specific gene to be placed in a certain spot to be read and activated. The started experimenting with the idea of taking a therapeutic gene and combining it with an on/off switch. This

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 GENERAL Nowadays‚ there is a demand of power supply. As an electrical engineer‚ it is necessary to design system with low cost‚ reduced losses and higher efficiency. This paper proposes nine-switch converter with single controller‚ rather than using 12 switches for operation of drives separately. In electrical vehicle drives mostly AC motors are used. It is because of its well known advantages like simplicity‚ reliability‚ lack of mechanical commutator

One of my largest life decisions was making the switch. The switch changed my life in multiple ways. It introduced me to several important people in my life including friends and coaches. The switch also gave me numerous opportunities I would not have had otherwise. The switch was not easy to adjust to at the time‚ but I will never regret it. It has become a major decision in my life and now is a significant part of my memories. The switch occurred in eighth grade when I transitioned from basketball

Should America Switch to the Metric System? Out of all 195 countries in the world a mere 3 of them are currently using the US customary system of measurement as its official measurement system. These three remaining countries are the US‚ Liberia (which was founded by the US)‚ and Myanmar(which is drifting toward converting to the metric system) meaning that if the US were to switch to the metric system it would finally be on the same base as the other 99% of the world. America should switch From
