From the invisible to the visible world and back...

Investigating about this theme I found interesting information that is connected with my career, pharmacy. The nanotechnology applied to the drugs administration. Thanks to the science, a new possibility in the way we administrated drugs using the nanotechnology had emerged like a system of the liberation of the active principle.
The nanoparticles are solid particles; they are used like drugs administrated agents, with this accomplished an increased the dissolution rate and the saturation limit of solubility.
Another application that call my attention was the nanotechnology in the therapy against cancer because some of the little transports (liposomes, micelles) are used for the preparation of new formulas that make the bioavailability gets better for all this cancer treatments’ and make the drugs’ distribution against cancer where the tumor is get better too.
The liposomes are spherical structures that have one or more layers. The liposomes are used to improve the therapeutic effect of very potent drugs. This distribution system reduces the toxicity.

Talking about an important instrument in this little world, scanning tunneling microscope. This instrument give us atomic surfaces images. The STM can be used not only in vacuum but also in air, water and a lot of other liquid or gas ambientes.

All the discoveries made in the microscopy world help us to understand a lot of impacts in the macro 
world. In this case, liposomes are part of us, the nature give us this incredible piece of life. 

My blogging experience

Thinking back, at the beginning of this semester I couldn't write more than a few sentences but today I feel like I can express my ideas and feelings more clearly. 
I've been writing about many topics that had brought a lot of memories from the past, like old photos and experiences. I found this really interesting because it wasn't about scientist topics all the time, this blog let us to talk about ourselves and to get to know a little about each other.
I think the blog that I enjoy the most was when we had to talk about our pets, I love my puppies, it's like I can put all my emotions in this, they're so pure from the soul. Perhaps that blog was the easier blog that I’ve been wrote. 
Rewind to the beginning of this entrance I mentioned old photos; I remember this topic because I had to look in my cell album photos, old ones. It was a little nostalgic going back in time, remembering the moment when the photo was taken, because that what pictures are... a piece of a moment that happened a long time ago. 
I think, talking about common things in life helped me to put in words my life and that is a great advanced because when we talk with other people our topic conversation is usually about ordinary things.
This idea of writing blogs, in my opinion, is so funny because we can show a little piece of us and it’s so helpful because we discover a new expressions and words.

The most enjoyable subject thus far...

Salt bridge, (Quemistry, Medical Technology)


My favourite subject in this career is laboratory, maybe this is the reason why I choose this career. In my last career I had not a favourite subject, I used to enjoy maths classes and of course I like this subject in this career too.

I enjoy laboratory so much, I like to experiment new reactions that give us incredible things as a result. Last year (in my last career) the only part of the week that I used to enjoy is when in quemistry subject we went to the lab once a month, maybe it sounds like a cliché but those lab days I used to go to the university smiling.
This subject helps us to understand what we learn in classes because we can experiment the reactions in the real world.

Another subject that I like is maths or calculus, it's hard to understand, almost for me but when I learn how to do an exercise or resolve a problem I experiment a personal realization and it feels great.

I think subjects were really important at the time when we made the decision to study this career, it is going to be 5 years studying and understanding them, so we need to like them or learn how to like them because the motivation is one of the most important things when we are studying something.

Expert you admire

It's hard for me to choose someone to admire, I don't used to think about that frecuently, buy if I start to remember my old school days, the name that come to my mind is... Marie Curie. My quemistry teacher told about her and how she helps to make great scientific advances.
Marie Curie (1867-1934), she was a polish scientist that made incredible discoveries in the radioactivity field, besides,  she was the first person that adquire two nobel prizes in two different specialities, physics and quemistry. She was born in Varsovia, place that it was administred by the Russian Empire. She studied in the 'universidad flotante' and then she started her scientific formation. she shared the nobel prize with her husband, Perrie Curie.
I choose to talk about her because she was an important woman that helps us and the future generations to adquire knowledge. The reason why admire her is because when she was born the world was a world of men,so she fight to be recognist and show what she had to say, that's so admirable.

Moving on into a website that I enjoy to visit, it is a youtube channel. Unicoos helps me a lot to understand maths. The reason why I aprobe the subject is because of this channel (I approve this subject last year, in the carrer that I left :c). I love so much this kind of video because everything that I couldn't undestand in classes it seems so easy after watching a video from this channel.

About pets, love and friendship

I think pets means a lot to everyone who has one, it's everyone choice to take care of them and give them all their -our- love. I can remember the first pet that I had, well, she was my grandmother's puppy but I loved her like she was mine and I grow up with her by my side because I live in my grandmother's house. It's so sad to say that I can't remember her very well, but I remember how much I used to love her.
The second pet that came into my life was before the puppy mentioned, her name was the same... 'Pelusa', still today is hard to talk about her, she dead in march and I miss her so much, she used to be there for me when no one else was, I miss those days when I arrived to my home so overwhelming and tired  about something and she lay by my side in the sofa, that's meant everything to me.
She had four babies (by accident) 2 of them was given to another family and we kept the other 2, but the relationship is different, they're at the background... but of course, I love them so much too



There's another beautiful dog that came into my life from the street, one day my grandmother was feeding dogs that stand at our house's door and this little one crossed the street and a car almost crashed her, so, my grandmother decided to take her under her protection... and this is how she lives with us until today.




This little one was a gift from my dad. I must admitid that I don't have a lot of patient and time to make her feel  comfortable so, my dad used to asume this role at the evening and that's the reason why she loves him more than me. Her name is Arya, I choose this name when I was crazy about the first season of Game of Thrones.
