Marie Curie

"A scientist in his laboratory is not a mere technician: he is also a child confronting natural phenomena that impress him as though they were fairy tales."


Hello to all my classmates and teacher, today I will talk about my favourite scientist: Marie Curie.
Marie Curie was a Polish and naturalized French physicist and chemist (was born on November 7, 1867 and died on July 4,1934 at 66 years) who conducted pioneering research on radioactivity. She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first person and only woman to win twice, the only person to win a Nobel Prize in two different sciences: physics (1903) and chemistry (1911). She was also the first woman to become a professor at the University of Paris. Her achievements included the development of the radioactivity theory, radioactive isotope isolation techniques, and the discovery of two elements that today are in the periodic table of elements: polonium (Po) and radium (Ra).
I admire Marie Curie because I think that in her time was too difficult to excel as a woman due to existed a very macho society, the women were considered below mens. Nonetheless she never gave up, exprored, discovered, analyzed and became one of the most important scientists to this day. An exemplary model to follow.
I consider this women is important because she pushed many of others womens to do what they proposed to do in their time.

    Marie Curie is very amazing, above all in the period she lived!!
    She is an example to follow...

    I'm absolutely sure that she encouraged many women to rise their voices and say what they needed to say, because she never gave up, in the science field and in that era women were undervalued

Changes to my study program

Today I will talk about the changes that I would like to do in my career (Chemistry). Well, first I want to change the system of the curriculum, because I think that some courses have to be in the same semester (like Analytical Chemistry and its laboratory) and some courses that haven't been in the same semester (like Organic Chemistry and its laboratory). I would change the requirements of the course: "instrumental analysis laboratory" because this course has as a requirement "statistics and data analysis". I think that this course is not necessary to take the instrumental analysis laboratory, the only thing that you need to know of "statistic" is how to get the average and standard deviation. I got behind a year in the career for this reason. Also, I would like to change some "teachers" because some of them don't have vocation to teach to us. In this faculty it's very varied, because I see teachers who loves that the stud...

Personal opinion about some things

Hi everyone, in this blog I'll talk about my opinion to different questions like: What is your opinion about the immigration situation in Chile?; What is your opinion about tatoos?; What is your opinion about legalizing marijuana and other drugs?; What is your opinion about legalizing abortion in some cases? In first place, I think that the inmigration in Chile causes a lot of discomfort in some people because they say "immigrants come to take away from us job opportunities" "immigrants come to increase crime in our country" and many other stupidities. The Chilean people always complain about something, but I think that inmigrants have every right to come to our country to feel better and have a better quality of life.  Also, Chileans are lazy and immigrants do not take "our jobs", most of them come to work in whatever way they can to support their families. In second place, I like tattoos , not big tattoos, but those that are more discreet an...

A country I'd like to visit

Mendenhall Glacier I've always thought of travelling  in order to go on vacations to a country that has nature, history, beautiful buildings, and a different dynamic than here, in Chile. That country could be U.S.A, specifically the state of Alaska. I think that everyone is thinking: why Alaska? It's too cold to think to go there! Well, I think that's so beautiful because this state show us the most beautiful things that nature and chemistry elements could give us: northern lights. The northern lights are product of the sun radiation, composition and characteristics of our atmosphere. The auroras are collisions between electrically charged particles from the sun that enter the earth's athmosphere. The lights are seen above the magnetic poles of the northern and southern hemispheres. The lights appear in many colors, it depends on the type of gas particles that are colliding and the distance in which it happens, for example, molecules of oxigen at 96 km are yellow...
