613 Words2 Pages

The application of the principles biomedical science is a pivotal component, if not the cornerstone of the modern healthcare setting; which has greatly impacted the longevity of humanity. The discoveries and advances made in this field, bolstered my motivation and passion to study biomedical science, not only to develop my understanding of the complexity of the human body and its process’ but also to potentially play a role in improving the lives of others; as well as answering some of the complex questions life presents. My interest in the field, specifically the discipline of haematology, came in the diagnosis of my father’s autoimmune disease which causes a depletion of platelets and thus affecting the ability of the blood to clot. Through my studies I was able to gain some basis as to …show more content…

In addition, this has allowed me to gain an understanding of both biological and chemical processes such as the polymerization that occurs to form amino acids and the relation of these in biological processes involving the formation of enzymes. Though not scientific, studying English has helped me to develop my communication and essay writing skills.
Furthermore, I enjoy using digital platforms such as TED and Talks at Google to further my learning beyond the scope of the classroom setting. The main point of interest is topics relating to technological advances and their application in the healthcare setting; a particular talk by Jim Al-Khalili about how quantum mechanics can be applied to biological principles to help to explain life processes on a molecular level. This talk goes into detail about how various scientific disciplines fit together to the understanding of human
