English 4, Post 7, 'Changes to my study programme

Honestly, I have various criticisms of the study programme that we have, mainly I think that we have subjects that are simply to be used as filters, such as "electromagnetism" that although it is a scientific subject, it is a totally different area, it is a subject that someone who studies physics or related fields should know, but as biochemists or any other career of the faculty, in our professional life he will never see again. 

Also speaking of the same subject, the amount of matter is a lot. And personally, the subjects that concern me are because I entered biochemistry to learn about microbiology and genetics, but those subjects are seen until the 3 or 4 year of career, so anyone who enters the career with an investigative spirit, will be a bad surprise to have to study subjects focused more in chemistry than on pure research, but that I think is already more a problem of student choice, for the same reason I am thinking of changing to another career than have a more bioinvestigative approach.

I don't have much to say about the use of infrastructure and technology, the times I have entered and used the faculty are counted on the fingers of my hands. So any comments on that should be done when I already have a good amount of times going, which I hope finally happens this year.

Post 4: A meal or food you really like

Imagen
I really like things made with potatoes 😍 mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, potato omelette (recipe of Chiloe), sauteed potatoes (with rosemary and butter), milcaos, etc. I also really like fish and (salmon, hake, conger eel, pippin), seafood to eat. To drink I like infusions and natural juices.  but i think my favorite food lately is stew, is  made with protein (it can be animal meat or other vegetable meat if you want), potatoes, peas, squash, beans, garlic, oregano, bell pepper, white wine and salt, at least when I cook it I prepare it this way.  I think it is a healthy and balanced meal, because it incorporates many nutrients, proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, so it is good for a tiring day At the moment thanks to the covid I have neither taste nor smell, so they have been really weird days for me

Hi, my name is Nicolás Martínez, or just "Nico", I was born in Puerto Montt, but I lived in a little coast town next to Puerto Montt, called Maullín  for 20 years , and 1 year in Punta Arenas and last month, for study reasons, I was living in Independencia, Santiago. I'm 21 years old, I think I'm a very calm person with a lot of patience, but I like do new things and talk with others  a lot , especially to do things whitout a plan, just enjoying the moment with friends. I also like to listen to music, i spend the whole day listen to different music, or playing it, at the moment my favorite artist is "ChysteMC". I'm in third semester of biochemistry at Universidad de Chile, several relatives work in scientific areas, specially my cousin who also studied  biochemistry, with a PhD in medical sciences. My family is very small and I'm the youngest and the only man in there, we are a very united group and we all love each other. I live lives my mother, cal

 Bacteriophage as a solution against bacterial infections  In our actual world, thanks to Fleming and other scientists who have contributed to the field of antibiotics, a wound doesn't seem like a big deal to us, quite the opposite of what the same would could mean 300 years ago, where the only solution at best was to amputate the implicated limb and in most cases, an infected wound was an certain death. The famous king, Richard the Lionheart, died in 1199 from an infected shoulder wound But the overuse of antibiotics has caused an unexpected problem. The misusing of them, for headaches, physical pain and colds has caused to bacteria becoming resistant to antibiotics. These bacterias are called "superbugs", microorganisms capable of resisting any existing modern medicine. This fact will return us to the same situation that existed before penicillin. If we don't have a containment mechanism against bacteria, a simple injury could cost us our lives. There is still a sal
