Another area of
14 interest for me is molecular biology, this being the biosciences departments strong suit at
15 Sheffield Hallam means I can pursue my interest in this topic with techniques that have been
16 developed in research as the techniques found in research are integrated into the course.
17 Research techniques being integrated ensures that the work being carried out is up to date and
18 means the information being delivered on the course keeps up with the ever-changing world of
19 science and I am keen to expand my knowledge and learning with these research techniques. A
20 further topic in the second year that I am interested in is the biomedical investigative
21 techniques as this will explore the problem-solving nature of science, and learning the
22 different investigative techniques will be useful and enjoyable due to the challenge in
23 investigation which is a key part of science.
24 Versatility is an integral characteristic needed to excel in Biomedical Science as the
The goal was to show admission faculties of dental schools that I am capable of mastering upper-level biology classes such as Human Gross Anatomy and Histology and to prepare for my future study in dental school. During my Master’s study at Mississippi College, I developed a strict lifestyle through time management in order to maximize time for studies. I graduated with a Master’s degree in Biomedical Science with a 3.7 GPA. The success at Mississippi College gave me the confidence that I can be successful in any dental
My interest in medicine had started out with an enjoyment of science. From general biology to advanced cellular/behavioral neuroscience, the study of the biological systems, especially the most complex of them all, the human body, has been a delightful journey with new discoveries in each new class.
My current area of interest is in the engineering and the biomedical field. After experiencing the rigorous AP Chemistry course, I was able to find my passion in the field of medicine. Furthermore, I had already developed an interest in engineering from my previous engineering courses and clubs, so a deeper understanding of what I wanted to do was discovered in a chemistry lab. Being involved with the Technology Student Association at our institution, I learned several different skills in a variety of technical fields. This led to my conclusion that I wanted to become a biomedical engineering. This field of engineering incorporates both the medical aspect and technical aspect of what I want to become in the future.
The one instant I can pinpoint as the genesis of my interest in biomedical science was the winter of sixth grade, when I picked up a book on creativity and the brain. I found it fascinating, but what really struck me was that here was a several hundred page book that mostly talked about how little we knew about its topic. It made me think. This was supposed to be a book about how much we’ve learned, and what it’s saying is that the progress we’ve made is only in finding out how little we know. This didn’t upset me; it made me curious. Because, of all the things that we should know about, surely our own minds and our own bodies are paramount among them, and yet we still have so much to learn. I’ve since learned that this phenomenon is not restricted to the biological – gravity is one of the most important things in our lives, yet we do not know its cause. But the biomedical questions continue to fascinate me, perhaps because the answers are so vital. Sure, cosmology is intriguing, but what about a cure for cancer, or even the common cold? What about a way of repairing or bypass...
My desire of studying biomedical sciences stems from my sciences interest, as it demonstrates a world not visible to the naked eye, plays a big role in everyday life. science specifically biology and chemistry are stimulating and challenging subjects , over the years of studying them ,my interest has increased because learning things about how our bodies function and how it relates to god’s creation is particularly interesting for me. I also find it very important because I’m Muslim. The biomedical science degree will open for me the door to learn more about the vast field of biology and its branches to a greater depth. I developed my knowledge in the science field by taking support classes in the lab at school; I was fascinated by how the body can function in different circumstances and the complexity of DNA, different organisms, chemical reactions, and also very importantly the mathematical aspect which gives me the chance to develop and use my logic and it inform me to new ways of looking at given problems.
I have been curious about the natural world for as long a time as I can remember. As a child. I moved from one fascination to the next, always chasing discovery of the origin of different aspects of nature and trying to determine how they fit into their settings.
Of all the knowledge and skills that I have gained during my undergraduate studies, it is the experience I have gained as a research and dental assistant that will contribute the most to my career as a dentist. Although a strong science background is essential to succeed in dental school, my unique combination of personal motivation, social skills, perseverance, and desire to help those in need will allow me to excel in this profession. To appreciate the characteristics that set me apart from other students pursuing similar goals, it is necessary to understand how I reached the point where I am today.
A lot of the students in the class are bio majors or other majors that go into biology( Like me. I'm a biochem major). Like Dr. Lee always reminds the class, many of us will not make it into medical school. This presentation helped give many students another alternative about a career path.
Although hands-on research will be a new welcoming experience for me, I have already become initiated to the field of science. I completed two-years of my college coursework at Gadsden State Community College, where I entered into the EMS field of study and attended the programs from EMT through Paramedic. There I was engrossed in my studies with a passion. I excelled due to my passion for the subject and the field of science and medicine; I attained the top average in my class during my Advanced EMT program and I landed in the top ranks of my Paramedic program. I plan on transferring to the University of Alabama at Birmingham with an intended Pre-medical track with a double major in Neuroscience and International Studies along with a double minor in Japanese and Biology.
The complexity of the human body is what I find most interesting, especially the immune system and the impacts it has on our daily lives when dealing with cancer and genetic disorders and I want to have a better understanding of the common illnesses around us. My desire to study Biomedical Sciences is supported by the experience I have gained at A-level. I have an in depth understanding of the human body's ability to fight diseases. I have gained laboratory skills and enhanced my analytical thinking techniques, interlinking various points to produce the most suitable response to a hypothesis, vital for a role in Biomedicine. My mathematical prowess has given me new ways to deal with a given problem.
However, my curiosity and thirst for more understanding in the field remain unsatisfied, and I know that I have to obtain a solid educational background upon which to consolidate my widespread knowledge as well as build my future practice. In my endeavor to be an outstanding doctoral scholar, I strongly believe that D.Phil. in Engineering Science programme in the University of Oxford will offer an ideal environment in which to test and strengthen my understanding of such discipline, while being a place where I could formulate engineering theories and principles, and contribute my new knowledge to the field of research and development in biomedical areas with the aim of improving quality and standards of healthcare. The reason for choosing the University of Oxford is its high reputation for producing eminent graduates, and being on the cutting edge of academic research in biomedical engineering. It has the essence to transform my aspiration into reality and consummates my keen dream of standing on the foremost front-line in my field of interest.
I am interested in acquiring new skills and this curiosity has led me to study sciences for A level. I take a particular interest in Biology and the interrelation between it and oral health. This, along side my work experience, has motivated me to pursue a Medical degree. I am aware of the challenges of medicine but I believe I can thrive in such a field.
During the summer in year 12 I was fortunate enough to go on a weeklong taster course for biological sciences at Exeter University, here I gained invaluable understanding of life on campus. I regularly attended the king's college medical lectures during sixth form. In these lectures I saw various positions in Medicine and the bioscience field. This allowed me to get an idea what each field entails. I wrote my EPQ on the anatomical structure of the human brain.
