Rosalind  Franklin  She was born on July 25, 1920 in Notting Hill, London, England. He studied chemistry at Cambridge and learned crystallography and X-ray diffraction, techniques that he applied to DNA fibers. One of her photographs provided key information about the structure of DNA. Other scientists used it as evidence to back up their DNA model and took credit for the discovery. Franklin died of ovarian cancer in 1958, at age 37. Some say that the recognition of her contribution was stolen by two scientists: James Watson and Francis Crick. They did not give recognition for the work to Franklin, who died in 1958, at age 39, without being recognized by the scientific community. Rosalind Franklin is the scientist to whom we owe everything we know about DNA. For me she was the most important woman in the history of modern chemistry. Her contributions to science involve the study of the structures of carbon, graphite, DNA, RNA, and viruses. I admire her because despite the time i

Thinking in the future I really like the career I chose, because it is a perfect mix of science and health, in one way or another you are always connected with people's health without having to have physical contact with them. It also has a lot of work, I can work in a hospital, in a pharmacy, in a laboratory synthesizing medicines, hygiene products or makeup, I can dedicate myself to research, or in the forensic area (this subject calls my attention) I feel that in the future I will not get bored of thecareer because I have many different options to make. At some point I would like to try all the areas to know which one I really like, because it is not the same to do things for them to tell you about it. But the ones that call my attention the most, in the clinical, laboratory or forensic area. Working in a pharmacy I don't think it's very fun, but I still want to work for a while there, because it is like the base and I would learn a lot, it would be a good

A  photagraph.   A story My great-grandmother turned 100 in May, but we couldn't celebrate her for the Covid-19, but this summer we took this picture in Colina. In it is almost the whole family from my mother, some uncles of my mother and some of her brothers are missing, but as you can see we are a very large family. In this photo there are 5 generations, from my great-grandmother, Lita, to the children of my cousins That day was very hot, and we took too long taking the photos, because we were so many that someone always came out looking elsewhere, we were also in full sun and it bothered our faces, but the most difficult thing was taking the photos with the children, keeping them orderly for so long was almost impossible. We took several photos, one of Lita with her children, another with her grandchildren, another with her great-grandchildren, with her great-great-grandchildren and in the end we took one all together. My mom always told me that she studied f

SCOUT IN MY LIFE At 8 years old I joined my first group, Villa Maria, it was small, but that's why everyone knew each other, everyone played with everyone, big with boys ... we were like a very big family, most of our leaders were teachers, We went camping together, and they were really known differently. The relationship with the friends you make in scouting are much deeper than the others, you can camp with them for 1 or 2 weeks, and you really get to know them too well, some become like brothers, best friends. For me scout it is not only "a Saturday activity", it is a whole way of life, apart from the fact that relationships with people are closer, it also gives you resources to face life, from very basic things like learning to cook until how to deal with your emotions. Being in this movement helped me a lot in difficult times, it gave me great friends, several memories... So, I got a Flower of a Liz tattoo, a scout symbol, with an infinity to say that thi
