social issue

Hello everyone, today I have to talk about some social issue and what better than the social outbreak experienced in October last year. As many will know, the people have kept quiet about many injustices, corruption, unjustified price increases, the same political faces in the same positions filling their pockets without helping people, poverty, collusions, etc. Everything was triggered with the rise in the subway train passage, it was the straw that broke the camel's back, and well the rest is already known, people raised their voices, shouted against oppression and made themselves heard. There were many demonstrations, being the "ground zero" the plaza italia, which was later changed to the name of plaza dignidad, there were many clashes with the police forces, where the abuse of power on the part of the state dogs ruled, it was a fighting of stones against bullets, of barricades against armored vehicles, but the people continued to fight and although they got a vote fo...

my future job

Hello everyone, today we will talk about my future job, well I study biochemistry, and I would love to have a job where it allows me to do what I want like, investigate, I imagine it being in a relaxed environment, with music. The truth is that I have always dreamed of leaving Latin America, for me it is not a future if I do not go far from this country. Within the whole world in which the role as a biochemist can be developed, microbiology has always caught my attention, but viruses even more, I like the idea that a complex of proteins and nucleic acids can have so much power, for me it is incredible. I have also been in a laboratory where they investigate HIV and I liked it a lot so I definitely find that it is my thing. The work of a scientist is difficult, he has to investigate, he has to compete with his peers, he has to apply for projects, and the salary is not something that stands out, so I have never expected large sums of money , but they don't matter to me either, that I...

my quarantine project

Hello everyone, I decided to talk about my quarantine project , my own microscope. Well it all started when my friend Luis had built one in my first year of university, he showed me the wonderful things he found in the microscopic world and it ended up being my biggest motivation. I have always liked the subject of electronics, playing with electrical circuits, and those things, so why not make a microscope where the sample can be moved with motors and everything controlled, at first it sounded like a great idea, disassemble An old printer that I had only to get some motors, gears, cables, and use part of the structure, but I realized that it was all very rough, with the help of a friend who knows electronics he began to recommend components and so buy some things. He bought me the lenses that would give him the necessary zoom to see the sample, motors called step motors, which would allow me to better control the movement and an Arduino board that is a microcontroller that would allow...

Biochemistry.-

Hello everyone, today I come to talk about what I study, Biochemistry and I will tell you about why I chose it, the positive aspects and benefits in case someone reading this gets excited. Since I was a child, I wondered how things worked, and I was impressed with how they did it and it was science that answered my questions and the career of biochemistry was the career that allowed me to have the professional training to continue wondering and researching. And of course, it has positive aspects, a personal scope, it satisfies the constant curiosity in me, it gives me the tools to answer them and on the other hand it is a benefit in society, because all research contributes to knowledge and that is what leads us to generate new things for the benefit of life. As benefits, I would not say that it is something very satisfactory, it is a long way, there is no money or fame or anything else than doing what you like and thus help the entire community by contributing a grain of sand to knowl...

Amon Amarth

Hello everyone, I come to talk about the concert I attended in March of this year at the Caupolican theater here in Santiago, I went to see Amon Amarth who is a Swedish  melodic death metal band with Viking-style, their lyrics are based on this culture, the name of the band means mount of destiny. There were also other bands, Bone breaker, which is a Chilean metal band, this one I did not know but it has good music, and Power Wolf, a German power metal band, when they played you felt the lack of control. The atmosphere was fascinating, lights everywhere, screams and excitement, it felt like a frenzy of emotions. I felt very excited since it was my first concert and one of the bands that I like the most, so I enjoyed it to the fullest every moment, I also went alone, but I felt super good, I met a couple of people, who until today I have contact and what music is unites us. Some memory? Well, there was a person dressed as a Viking but her suit was made with beer crates, it was total...

The truth is I do not have a specific country to go to, I have no attachment to any particular place but if I had to choose, it would be Spain, a country on the European Iberian Peninsula, its capital is Madrid and have 47 millon habitant. Well this place is very interesting to me , I also have my friend Luis who I met at the University in Chile but who currently lives there with his family, he studies Biochemistry in the 'Universidad Autonoma de Barcelona' and he tells me about the educational system there, the lifestyle and well, I think I end up convincing myself that in the future if I have to do an internship, at least one semester or some master's or doctorate. In addition, the advantage of being in Europe that everything is quite close to you and that is where there are great research powers, which is the area I want to dedicate myself to.
