Developing Future Biologist
Since my second year of university, I am step by step finding my way to be the professional I want to be in life. Since I was a child, I was always told my only career choice in science was to be doctor in medicine and with that thought in mind I entered the University of Puerto Rico in Ponce. I love science, and that’s why I started a career in Biomedical Sciences. However, a turn of events showed me that there is more in life and there are alternative careers in sciences other than being a doctor in medicine. Having the privilege of being a part of the program Developing Future Biologist showed me that in fact I want to continue a career in research. This program showed me the countless possibilities that are available to me and it inspired

    I have always been a person who has found herself torn between the love of chemistry and biology. The manner by which all natural schemes of the human body work and even methods by which they could be manipulated to create something desirable, to where one can produce the answers to someone's problem is such a powerful and a blessed ability. At fourteen years, I was a dedicated, immensely caring, and vibrant young lady with great dreams aspiring to become a medical doctor. For the final two years of secondary school, I successfully…

    I can still vividly recall the eleven-year-old me fawning over the likes of Lawrence Krauss and Neil Degrasse Tyson. I was completely immersed in everything and anything pertaining to the vast universe beyond our seemingly insignificant world. I thought I had it all figured out. I would devote my life to being an astrophysicist and eventually earn my PhD. I would relish in the pink lettering on my wall that said “Dr. Mia”, but as I approach my late teens, my mind has been bombarded with what-ifs and buts. Irrespective of my change of heart, I still have an intense passion for math and science since it is how we explain the world around us, and that is why I have settled on biomedical engineering.…

    I was introduced to the field I am interested in from my 9th grade biology class. Prior to the course, I had never taken biology or any science, for that matter, that had captured my attention such as this year-long experience. I was intrigued by the subject and fascinated with all the advances in society that have been made by scientists throughout the years. The possibility of being able to do this in the future kept me engaged and I further pursued this interest by currently taking AP Biology. In addition, I was inspired by the change that scientists can make through research and…

    The path to a future in any field is shaped by our interests and the influences on us. Four readings in Module 2 of our course CD explore women’s paths in science: the M2 Reflection, the M2V1 reading, the M2W1 essay, and the M2V2 reading. For some women and men the path is straight, while for others it may twist and turn for decades. Some scientists see their scientific work as separate from the other aspects of their lives, while for others the different parts are closely connected. A remarkable example of desires and influences shaping a life path is Catherine Asaro—dancer, physicist, and award-winning science-fiction writer.…

    One of my most vivid memories from my childhood was the day I received a plastic toy stethoscope from my grandfather. Years later, I realize how it was not only a new plaything, but one that would inspire me to choose my future career path. While medicine is a tough field of study, I know that it is tougher still to toil the earth as my grandfather did in the hot indian summers. At his side after a long day’s work, I would help him at the night clinic he opened for free vaccinations. As I entered high school, I strived to embody such initiative and leadership by running for the Student Council and serving as Class Representative. Taking AP Biology and AP Environmental Science ignited my fascination about how living organisms and cellular systems effortlessly work together, grow, and adapt to their environment,…

    I have always been interested in Science and its associated subjects from infancy. It is no surprise I have exceptional interest in studying Diagnostic Radiography due to its practical science nature. My curiosity in practical science grew after my first dispersion of light by a triangular prism experiment. As a child, I was curious about the formation of rainbow and tried to workout how the rainbow is formed. My desire for science made me reject an offer from one of the prestigious colleges in Ghana to study Business to one of the deprived areas in Ghana to study Science. Studying Science in Ghana with shortage of teachers and limited resources did not deter me from studying hard and eventually graduating as the best Science Student from my college. Furthermore, I represented the college in the National Science and Mathematics Quiz program.…
