As she began college to earn a degree in Mechanical Engineering, her career was put on hold when her family’s world changed traumatically after her brother passed away in a car accident. Before returning back to college to pursue her career she became a wife, a mother of four, and a divorcee. When the overload of school, work, and parenting turned her dream of becoming an engineer unrealistic; she realized teaching would be the perfect career for her desire of giving back to the world. Similarly, my aspirations have been based on making a difference in the world. Ms. Biles has taught me that I do not have to create a life-saving vaccination in a laboratory to change the world, because I have the power to help someone in need of confidence, motivation, or even a

How can you be the youngest American self-made billionaire and a college drop out? Thirty-year-old Elizabeth Holmes accomplished this with her company Theranos. “I think a lot of young people have incredible ideas and incredible insights, but sometimes they wait before they go to give their life something, “she said,” what I did was just to start a little earlier” (Holmes). Elizabeth dropped out of Stanford University at the age of 19 and cashed the funds for her tuition to start her company. Her company took the $76 billion industry in laboratory-diagnostics head on. This industry hasn’t changed since the modern clinical laboratory emerged in the 1960’s. Elizabeth’s company wants to use a pinprick of blood in a container smaller than a dime to do 50 plus blood diagnostics in one. This means no vials of blood, no tourniquets and less time than the traditional test time. All the things the company is trying to create are amazing. These advancements will not only help with earlier detections of illnesses; the

On Sunday, March 19th, 2017 my roommate and I attended Latin Fest in Upper Wege. The event featured delicious Latin-American dishes (such as empanadas and fajitas), speakers, and a performance by the award-winning poet Elizabeth Acevedo. Acevedo is a National Slam Champion and has performed at a variety of venues both nationally and internationally, including The Lincoln Center, Madison Square Garden, and South Africa’s State Theatre(Acevedo). She has also done a number of TED Talks(Acevedo). Acevedo is an Afro-Latino American from New York and she recently released a book call Beastgirl & Other Origin Myths. She began her performance with her rap-style poem titled Beastgirl. Acevedo’s poems are often a joining of the English and Spanish languages.

Technology permeates every domain of critical care and has contributed to rising survival rates. The technological innovation grew out of boundaries, changing all industries involved. In health care, the advancement in science and technology play an important role in almost all process from patient registration to data monitoring, from lab tests to self-care.

Sometimes compared to her hero Steve Jobs, Elizabeth Holmes is well known as one of the most successful and youngest female entrepreneurs in America. The company she is building and the work she is revolutionizing is fascinating. Her company, Theranos, is developing a hardware, called a nanotainer that can carry out the exact same blood tests as diagnostic-labs do, and actually in a much faster time of just a few minutes, with only a pinprick of blood instead of three to four tubes of blood. By doing so, she will be able to eliminate one major cause of avoiding blood tests requested by doctors for the 40-60% of patients in America- the fear of big needles.

The news of what James Holmes did horrified and shocked many. Shooting up a movie theater in such a calculated and planned way caused many to wonder why exactly he did what he did.

Once upon a time, in a place between worlds where time and space held no meaning, three cloaked figures congregated to conspire against their most abhorred enemy, love. Each of these figures were each an embodiment of one aspect of evil and darkness. They went by the infamous monikers Jealousy, Greed, and Hatred. They surveyed the world, deciding where they would cause mischief next and their cruel attention turned upon the life of Princess Elizabeth and the abusive abominable excuse for a human being who happened to be her husband, Solomon.

David's achievements are particularly impressive because he had never worked with a bioreactor until this effort. Additionally, his project was faced with a considerable logistical obstacle: there was no machine shop that could finish the device by the due date. David elected to use the machine shop available at his school to construct the device himself, with the assistance of the other two students who made up his project team, even though this would mean extra work.

After discovering my passion for science and math, I pursue a career in Clinical Laboratory Science with enthusiasm. My desire to study this subject originates from the exciting and rapidly-moving subject area that is highly relevant to major issues facing society today. Clinical Laboratory Scientists play a crucial role in the healthcare field; in detection, diagnosis and treatment of disease in patients. My goal is to be involved in the latest advances in medical research and to constantly be expanding my knowledge about my field. On top of this goal, Clinical Laboratory Science remains a challenging, rewarding and inspiring topic that will motivate and shape my career for my entire life.
