The Pathway

My pathway for this project is the internship pathway and I plan to become a in the Southern Education Leadership Initiative (SELI). A project that works with various organizations in the American south to bring education equality. This project should help me grow in gaining experience in working in environments that I am not necessarily used to. In order to do this though I need to apply for the fellowship and if I am accepted I need to find a place to live when I am assigned a location. The first

The process in which the CRISPR pathway works contains a few steps that, after assembly of the RNA and nuclease complex, will occur naturally in the cell. From this point forward, the RNA sequence that is engineered to bind specifically to a target sequence will be referred to as guide RNA (gRNA). The assembly of the gRNA and Cas9 endonuclease complex binds to the target gene sequence and cleaves at a point just downstream of the protospacer adjacent motif (PAM; Figure 1; Chang et al., 2013) The

The water molecule in this life pathway starts in the lake. The water molecule is upon hundreds of millions of water molecules in their liquid state. The water molecules at this point are not rigid, and are packed together, yet are able to move freely, buzzing around each other, as if one distinctively knew it’s journey. Though the water molecules move freely, their form is constricted, because the lake’s shape is the shape that they take on themselves when bonded together in this liquid state. But

Greenlee et al. (2009) conducted an ongoing prospective cohort study called the Pathways Study. Due to the ongoing nature of the study, this data includes the first 1,000 participants recruited. These participants are women with invasive breast cancer (BC) diagnosed within two months of recruitment to ensure the timeliness of diagnosis. Baseline data was obtained through extensive interview, and questionnaires were administered to participants two months post-diagnosis to compare the use of CAM

Career Pathway Reflection As I continue through my education in my PY2 year, it is time to start thinking about the route I want to take when it comes to choosing a career path. Up until now, I have only done a little bit of research here and there whenever I’m in the oval office or just being a couch potato during the summer. This recent CPD session was invaluable when it came to thinking about the type of values I seek in my future career. Out of the few dozen factors I had to choose from, I narrowed

The APhA Career Pathway Evaluation Program for Pharmacy Student was held on March 09, 2016 at carver hall by Dr. G. Lawrence Hogue. The main goal of the program was to help students make informed decision and to help them see what pharmacy practice setting would be a best fit. Even before taking this program, I know I would have a bright future in my career because it can open up so many doors. I have had an idea of the different opportunities that I would have once I earned my Pharm D. But, I was

Even today I can still remember my graduation from preschool. I was only five years old at the time. At the ceremony my class-mates and I were asked what we wanted to be when we grow up. The world seemed so big at the time and every adult looked like they accomplished so much in their lives. Some of us said we wanted to be singers or professional athletes. Others wanted to be soldiers, doctors, or millionaires. Every person has had dreams of accomplishing great things and being successful. Everyone

Veronica Mars is a television show about a teenage girl moonlighting as a private investigator. In the town where the show is set in, there is a sharp class divide between the wealthy, white “09ers” who live in the 90909 zip code and the poor, Hispanic “PCH” bike gang. The 09ers and the PCHers have very set prejudices about each other. This a psychological concept, known as a schema. Schemas are the way a person organizes information on a concept or the way a person thinks about the world. In the

According to Joshua Buckholtz, lead author of the study in the article Psychopaths’ Brains Wired To Seek Rewards, No Matter The Consequesnces, “Psychopaths are often thought of as cold-blooded criminal who take what they want without thinking about the consequences.” Research from Vanderbilt University was published originally in Nature Neuroscience, and later where I found it in Science Daily suggests that psychopaths’ brains release as much as four times the amount of dopamine compared to someone

What do schizophrenia, Parkinson’s disease, bipolar disorder, and cocaine all have in common? It turns out they are all linked to the role of the dopamine transporter (DAT), which is an integral membrane protein responsible for the reuptake of dopamine from the synapse. Drugs that bind to DAT to prevent the reuptake of dopamine are used to treat the diseases mentioned above, among others. However, cocaine, which is also a DAT blocker, leads to profoundly negative effects, such as addiction and psychomotor
