Microbiology Personal Statement

One class was forensic science; it mainly covered pattern evidence, controlled substances, forensic instrumental, analysis, trace evidence, law/science interface, ethics and quality assurance. Giving me the skills to be prepared for the future successes in either a laboratory or courtroom. Most memorable unit in the class would be learning the process of decomposition and rigor mortis of a human or animal body moments after death. After the course ended I figured soon I’d need to learn more about the human body, so senior year I took a fifth science on anatomy and physiology. Didn’t think the subject would be difficult, but so far memorizing the different cavities, muscles, and many other parts has kept me studying

Since microorganisms are not visible to the eye, the essential tool in microbiology is the microscope. One of the first to use a microscope to observe microorganisms was Robert Hooke, the English biologist who observed algae and fungi in the 1660s. In the 1670s, “Anton van Leeuwenhoek, a Dutch merchant, constructed a number of simple microscopes and observed details of numerous forms of protozoa, fungi, and bacteria” (Introduction to Microscopes, n.d.). During the 1700s, microscopes were used to further explore on the microbial world, and by the late 1800s, the light microscope had been developed. “The electron microscope was developed in the 1940s, thus

Biomed Academy at my high school will be the most contributing factor to attain my goal. This academy has changed my perspective about medicine career. I have gained tons of knowledge from BioMed academy in these high school years. This will help me to attain my goal, because the knowledge gained from this academy will help me to be a successful medical professional. The principle of Health Science, Health Science, CNA, psychology, Biology, and anatomy and physiology are classes that prepared me to be an eligible Pre-Med applicant. I have learned from the basic structures of the body to the complex structure of the body, and from classroom to hands-on experience at the rehabilitation center. These years in BioMed Academy will help me to attain

Contrast is directly related to the illumination system and can be adjusted by changing the intensity of the light and the diaphragm. Chemical stains applied to the specimen can also enhance contrast elements (Alonzo p56)

Entering human body is not easy. The bacteria and other harmful materials can enter human body either via food or cuts and injuries on the skin. However, there foreign agents are not always welcomed in the human body. There are immune cells that fight harmful agents. The immunity system in the human body identifies harmful microbes like bacteria, viruses, and others and provides defense to the body against these substances. There are antigens present in viruses, fungi, or bacteria and these antigens are normally proteins or toxins, chemicals, drugs, etc. that show the presence of foreign harmful agent. The immunity system of man identifies these antigens and fights the microbes producing them.

Many pink spheres and rod shapes (maybe Staphylococci and Streptobacillus), a few clusters with small dots (maybe ribosomes, rings of spherical chains, star shaped body

I have come to realize that, in order to be an extraordinary student of the medical sciences, I must explore and uncover the hidden mysteries of science. There are questions, an infinite number of them, that remain to be answered in all spheres of the natural sciences such as disease, embryonic development, and to name but a few. Since my brought-up has occurred in a family of medical doctors, naturally my focus has been geared towards the biological and chemical aspects of the natural

Biology and Chemistry have helped my further develop my knowledge in the scientific field as well as helping me develop my analytical skills and problem solving skills. Being part of a junior cadet scheme from the ages of 14 to 16 allows me to be more disciplined and motivated to be dedicated to all my academic courses causing me to meet all my deadlines. My subjects linked together and opened my eyes to biomedicine. Biology and Psychology both looked at the anatomy of the human brain as well the chemical reactions and neurotransmitters involved in the human thought process. From my AS Biology course I was able to learn more complex concepts such as blood clotting and how the level of platelets affect blood

Medicine and research changing frequently, which leads to the opportunity to become a lifelong learner in my potential career. I enjoys studying technical processes and information and will never tire of learning new things; for me, academia and facing a field that relies so heavily on research will never fail to evoke curiosity and enthusiasm. To me, the most challenging subjects have always been the most interesting ones, and I strive to conquer and succeed with these subjects. The laboratory industry, with its constantly evolving technology and methods, will always be changing and I am equipped with the desire and skill to excel in such a rapid environment. While taking Introduction to Clinical Laboratory Science class we explored all the vast options for a clinical lab major, and in all of the different applications I see nothing but opportunities. With a Clinical Lab major, there is a world of

I intend to study Medical Laboratory Science at South Dakota State University. My goal is to acquire my bachelor’s degree by completing four years in that program to earn a degree that would allow me to find a high paying career. An additional perk to my career path would be the fact that Medical Laboratory Science positions are highly in demand in South Dakota. I do plan to live and work in South Dakota after I graduate. I wish to gain a lot of experience out of this education, and gain the ability to help save lives by diagnosing and researching in a medical setting. Pursuing a college education would gain me a vast array of different career opportunities if I found that Medical Laboratory Science wasn’t for me, along with greatly increasing

I've always seen myself as a seeker, looking to find new experiences, and I can think of no better such opportunity than to immerse myself in a American life. I was always fond of the language and culture of the U.S. I grew up in a community where being different isn't always accepted, but I never tried to fit in; instead favoring the cultural differences that attracted my interest and helped develop uniqueness in my character that I value. Studying in the U.S will give the chance to discover new sides of myself, as well as having quality education. My major is Microbiology which requires lots of practical work; but most of what we learn at my university is theoretical, which doesn't prepare us well for our future careers.

Walt Disney once said “You can design and create and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes the people to make the dream a reality.” As I approach my final year as a student here at the University of Georgia, I find Mr. Disney’s words to be quite true. Earning my biological engineering degree is by far the most challenging goal I have ever set out to accomplish, but I have found that over the years, my peers and the incredible faculty and staff at UGA have ignited in me a passion for science and technology. It has taken many people to help make my dreams a reality and I am forever thankful for the skills and the experiences this school has given me.

2. Introduction: Each student was given unknown bacteria and was instructed to perform a variety of experimental tests that would help to identify their bacteria. During the process of identification, the unknown bacteria was added to many different testing medias using aseptic technique. They are as follows: lactose fermentation on eosin methylene blue (EMB), TSI (Triple Sugar Iron agar), Phenol red sucrose, the SIM test, H2S by SIM, IMViC (indole, motility, voges-proskauer, and citrate), Urease (urea broth), PDase (Phenylalanine Deaminase), Lysine Decarboxylase, and Ornithine Decarboxylase. Colonial morphology on EMB was used to

From the very beginning of my student life, I loved biology. When I was in my lower secondary school, I still remember that day when my science teacher told me the story of microbes and the day after showed and taught applications of microscope, my interest in microbiology started to take its shape. I became even intensely interested when he told us that bacteria and virus are invisible to your naked eyes, however they can cause you disease and some might kill you. After the completion of my high school as a science major student, my parents wanted me to join medical school and become a doctor. But I had already encrypted curiosity of microbiology inside my mind. So, I began my journey into the world of microbiology. I secretly joined microbiology without telling my parents and told them that I am not shortlisted in MBBS exam.
