Response of Blood Urea using RF Scalar Network Analyzer

Reaction of Blood Urea utilizing RF Scalar Network Analyzer â€Å"2015 International Conference on Technologies for Sustainable Development (ICTSD-2015), Feb. 04 †06, 2015, Mumbai, India† Ingrid Anne P. Nazareth, Rajendra S. Gad, Sulaxana R. Vernekar, Gourish M. Naik Abstractâ€Urea content in the human blood is a significant boundary to screen the sound condition of an individual. Ordinarily a patient is sent to obsessive labs for blood extraction to evaluate the genuine urea rate. In spite of the fact that this technique is exact, it requires a great deal of time and reagents. It additionally includes the dread of contamination during the extraction of blood. The strategy portrayed in this composition gives a straightforward method dependent on RF reaction of urea in the human tissue. In this paper, lab tests of different urea rates were readied and their reactions were estimated utilizing a RF dielectric misfortune cell. The arrangement comprises of a sign generator and a range analyzer associated in scalar system mode to quantify the RF reaction from 10MHz to 500MHz. The outcomes show that there is a straight connection between the dielectric misfortune and the level of urea in the example. Keywordsâ€Urea, Health, RF Spectroscopy, Multivariate Regression. Presentation Wellbeing is a state of whole physical, social, and mental prosperity, and not actually the nonappearance of infection or infirmity.[1]-[3] Good Health or sound living inhumans creatures is the for the most part the ordinary state of apersons body and brain, which intends to be free fromillness,painor injury.[1] Health care suppliers advance great wellbeing in people just as forestall or fix medical issues. Various different variables like the â€Å"determinants of health† can likewise impact the wellbeing status of people, which incorporate way of life, foundation, social and financial conditions. Significant levels of pressure can likewise influence wellbeing tremendously.[4] Wellbeing is regularly defaced by ailments and infections some of the time reparable, now and again incurable.[5] The malady can influence any piece of the body for which there are meds accessible in like manner. One of the most significant organs are the kidneys wherein urea is an essential segments of pee which is sifted by them. The treatment of urea by the kidneysis a significant piece of mammalian digestion. Urea has different tasks to carry out including thecounter ebb and flow trade systemof thenephrons which reabsorbs water and basic particles from the excretedurine and as a bearer of waste nitrogen. The transformation factor 0.028 g/mmol can be utilized to gauge the proportional nitrogen content (ingram) of urea (inmmol).[6]Subsequently, 1gram of nitrogen is around comparable to 6.25grams ofprotein, and 1gram of protein is pretty much proportionate to 5grams ofmuscletissue. 1mmol of extreme urea in the pee, estimated by urea focus in mmol/l increased by pee volume in liters generally equivalents to a muscle loss of 0.67gram in states of muscle squandering. Uraemiaor uremia which implies urea in the blood can be characterized as an excess of protein and amino corrosive digestion final results (urea andcreatinine) in the blood that is generally discharged in the urine.[7] Symptoms of uremia incorporate exhaustion, shortcoming, queasiness and retching prompting loss of appetite,[8] muscle squandering, shallow breath, metabolic acidosis, tremors and irregular mental capacity. On the off chance that dialysis or kidney transplant isn't done, uremia will prompt renal disappointment causing trance, extreme lethargies and at last passing. [9][10]One of the Potential Uremic Toxins is urea present at high fixations for example >300mg/dL or >50mmol/L. The impact of high uremic poisons are migraines, spewing, exhaustion, carbamylation of proteins.[10] The beginning of uremia is inconvenient for individuals who have kidney issue. Individuals who are more than 30 years of age and have a kidney work beneath half (Glomerular Filtration Rate [GFR] from 50 to 60 mL) are slanted to have a serious extent of uremia. By chance in the United States, around 8 million individuals have uremic manifestations with a GFR of Blood tests Essential tests performed for the conclusion of uremia arebasic metabolic panelwith serumcalciumandphosphorusto assess theGFR,blood urea nitrogenand creatinineas well as serumpotassium,phosphate,calciumandsodiumlevels. Uremia will show significant levels of urea and creatinine, high phosphate, ordinary or marginally high sodium, likely discouraged calcium levels and raised potassium. The doctor will check foranemia, thyroid and parathyroid capacities in an essential routine test. An admonition indication of set up renal disappointment is constant paleness. Calcium anomalies can be controlled by the thyroid and parathyroid boards as they are identified with uremia as longstanding or random sickness of calcium digestion, just as stir up any indications of exhaustion. B. Pee tests So as to decide urea and creatinine leeway, a 24 hour pee assortment might be another option however not be an exact test because of the assortment method. Substitute research facility tests, that ought to be considered for the nearness of blood throws, pH and protein, areurinalysiswith minuscule examination.[12] System The constituents like Urea whose recurrence reactions are to be estimated are broken down in a known amount of refined water. The multivariate and bend fitting measurable applications can demonstrate the multi-recurrence bio-electrical impedance range to create boundaries to evaluate body piece like Urea, Cholesterol, Glucose etc.[13] The guideline behind the reaction of these constituents depends on assimilation of EM vitality by different sub-atomic vibrations in the example. Planning of tests Urea ranges from 10-20 mg/dL. Normal grouping of urea for example 15 mg/dL was utilized in the arrangement of tests. The arrangement tests were readied utilizing twofold refined water with half, typical, twofold and triple groupings of urea. All the above said groupings of urea were broken down in 1 mL of Alcohol and 14 mL of water. Tests were acted in quick scope mode followed by the moderate breadth mode. The test was rehashed twice with a hole of one hour and two hours, to negate the natural impact. Both the outcomes were contrasted with the underlying outcomes and were seen as exact with a slight blunder. Cell Design A cell was manufactured with a length of 12.5cms, expansiveness of 1cm and stature of 2cms. Within and outside of the cell was fixed with a meager copper foil which was then grounded. So as to forestall outside radiation, the phone was put in an iron holder which was grounded.[14] The following generator, cell and sign analyzer were affixed onto a wooden board to forestall any removals as appeared in Fig. 1. The following generator utilized is the ‘Signal Hound following generator’ and the sign analyzer utilized is the ‘Signal Hound Signal Analyzer’. Impedance estimation Signal is infused at connector 1 toward one side of the phone from the Tracking Generator and afterward transmitted through the fluid segment and saw at connector 2 at the opposite finish of the phone. Fig. 1: Experimental Setup Results By utilizing the above arrangement, the normal chart is recorded as appeared in Fig. 2. The RF spectra is appeared from 10 MHz to 500 MHz persistently. . Fig. 2: RF spectra from 10MHz to 500MHz In spite of the fact that the diagram appeared in Fig. 2 for all Urea focuses which have a conduct like that of the RF reaction of water, there is an unpretentious change in the lessening level for urea at certain focuses and its neighborhood, some of which are given in Table I. Despite the fact that fixation 3Urea is the extraordinary degree of structure in the human blood, yet it was taken for examination to see the noticeable changes in the assimilation design for urea focus. Since the variety were seen at the frequencies given in the table, it is consistently conceivable to extrapolate the centralization of urea to different fixations which are regularly found in the human blood. The table given underneath is significant when the estimation of the urea must be accomplished all the more quantitatively utilizing numerical relapse instruments. One such strategy is called multivariate relapse procedure for which these recurrence focuses and comparing weakening can be taken care of as factors and the estimation of urea should be possible for obscure example fixations. The work is in progress. TABLE I Variety of Attenuation level of Urea in dB End The composition depicts a trial procedure to decide the urea fixation utilizing RF reaction cell. The outcomes acquired in the examination show that the procedure is helpful for deciding obscure convergences of urea in some random blood test non-intrusively. The outcomes demonstrated are for research facility arranged examples with Urea as significant constituent and not real blood test which contain more than 100 constituents. The strategy can be stretched out further to join different constituents and can be really contrasted and blood tests. The method is helpful in evaluating urea fixation utilizing multivariate framework approach which is an absolutely scientific instrument. The mix of this apparatus with the above discoveries can form into a full fledge instrumentation for deciding blood urea focus non-intrusively. Affirmation Since a grant for the above work was given by the Goa University, creator Ingrid Anne P. Nazareth wishes to say thanks to them bountifully. References Graduate, Frank P.

Enzymes in the Dairy Industry

Cherno Okafor Aida Stefani SBI4U Octover twentieth, 2012 Assignment 1: Cellular Biology facilitates innovation Enzymes in the Dairy Industry Since antiquated occasions, proteins have assumed a significant job in food creation. Particularly in the journal business, a few chemicals are required for the creation of cheddar, yogurt, and other dairy items, while others are utilized in an increasingly specific manner, for example, improving surface or kind of the item. Catalysts are utilized to catalyze the attractive responses in modern procedures. Today, protein applications in such preparing get more challenges in view of the uncommon event and high costs.The point of utilizing the microbial catalysts is to accomplish this issue. Five of the more typical sorts of microbial proteins associated with the dairy business include: Rennet, Proteases, Lactase, Catalase, and Lipases. Milk contains proteins, particularly caseins which keep up its fluid structure. Proteases are chemicals that are added to drain during the procedure of cheddar creation, to hydrolize caseins, similar to kappa caseins, which balances out micelle arrangement and consequently forestalling milk coagulation. Then again, rennet and rennin are general terms for proteins used to coagulate milk.The Chymosin chemical which can be acquired from creature, microbial, or vegetable sources, is answerable for up to 70% of cheddar creation. It is presently conceivable to create chymosin in hereditarily altered growths. These altered microorganisms contain the quality got from the stomach of calves that is liable for creating chymosin. At the point when developed in a bioreactor, they discharge chymosin into the medium. A while later, the catalyst is extricated and cleaned, yielding an item that is 80%-90% unadulterated. Regular rennin contains just 4%-8% dynamic enzyme.Chymosin delivered by hereditarily built microorganisms is currently used to create cheddar in a wide range of nations. Rennet (Chymosin) has o wed to an expansion popular for cheddar creation around the world. Rennin follows up on milk in two phases, by enzymatic and by nonenzymatic activity, bringing about the coagulation of milk. In the enzymatic stage, the resultant milk turns into a gel because of the impact of calcium particles and the temperature utilized all the while. Numerous microorganisms are known to deliver rennet-like proteinases, as referenced above, which can substitute the calf rennet.Good yields of milk-thickening protease might be acquired in a medium containing 4% potato starch, 3% soybean feast, and 10% grain. During development, lipase is emitted along with the protease. Along these lines, the lipase action must be demolished by diminishing the pH, before the planning can be utilized as cheddar rennet. Protease is another eminent chemical. Bovine milk contains various distinctive whey proteins, for example, lactoglobulin and lactalbumin. The denaturing of these whey proteins, utilizing proteases as im petuses, brings about a creamier yogurt item. The denaturing of whey proteins is likewise fundamental for cheddar production.In expansion, proteases decrease hypersensitive properties of dairy animals milk items for babies, which produce more beneficial milk for them. Lactease is a glycoside hydrolase chemical that decays lactose into its constituent sugars of galactose and glucose. Lactose bigoted people can result from deficient creation of lactase chemical in the small digestive system. Taking care of lactose-containing milk to lactose-prejudiced people can bring about distresses, for example, cramps, gas, lack of hydration, looseness of the bowels in the stomach related endless supply of milk items, or perhaps death.Lactase gives alleviation to lactose and open minded people since it tends to be utilized monetarily to get ready sans lactose items, especially milk by the procedure of hydrolysis of the lactase into glucose and galactose. Likewise, lactase catalysts can be utilized in readiness of frozen yogurt to make a creamier, better tasting item and improving edibility. At long last, this decreases sandiness because of crystallization of lactose in concentrated arrangements. Likewise, cheddar fabricated from hydrolyzed milk matures more rapidly than the cheddar produced from ordinary milk.Another issue introduced by lactose is its low dissolvability. This forestalls the utilization of amassed whey syrups in numerous food forms as they have a disagreeable sandy surface and are promptly inclined to microbiological decay. Adding to this issue, the removal of such waste whey is costly because of its high organic oxygen request. These issues might be overwhelmed by hydrolysis of the lactose in whey; the item being around multiple times as sweet, significantly more dissolvable and fit for shaping concentrated, microbiologically secure, syrups.Technologically, lactose takes shape effectively which sets cutoff points to specific procedures in the dairy business, and the utilization of lactase to conquer this issue has not arrived at its fullest potential on account of the related significant expenses. In addition, the fundamental issue related with releasing enormous amounts of cheddar whey is that it dirties the earth. Be that as it may, the released whey could be abused as an other modest wellspring of lactose for the creation of lactic corrosive by aging. In the creation of cheddar, hydrogen peroxide is an intense oxidizer and harmful to cells.Catalase chemicals are utilized are utilized rather than purification, when making certain cheeses, for example, Swiss, so as to save normal milk catalysts that are valuable to the final result and flavor improvement of the cheddar. Because of sanitization, these catalysts would be devastated by the high warmth. Accordingly, Catalase compounds are commonly added to change over to the hydrogen peroxide to water and atomic oxygen which will improve last creation. At long last, there are the lipases in the dairy business. Lipase chemicals are fundamentally used to separate milk fats and give trademark flavors to cheeses.The flavors originate from the three unsaturated fats created when milk fats are hydrolyzed. Hydrolysis of shorter chains of unsaturated fats is ideal as it brings about attractive tastes of numerous cheeses not at all like the hydrolysis of longer chains of unsaturated fats which could bring about latheriness or no flavor by any stretch of the imagination. It is prominent to make reference to egg items. Numerous mechanically delivered cream items utilized dried egg powder rather than new eggs. The chemicals of lipase and glucose are actualized so as to safeguard egg powder and keep up its colour.These proteins are frequently delivered with the help of hereditarily altered microorganisms. Hereditarily adjusted microorganisms bring about better yields in essentially frameworks. A few cheddar causing investigations to have been done with recombinant chymosin and t he general parts of recombinant chymosin have been managed. Since a large portion of the rennet (>90%) added to cheddar milk is lost in the whey, immobilization would impressively broaden its reactant life. A few rennets have been immobilized, yet their inadequacy as milk coagulants has been questioned.So, there is a genuinely broad help for the view that immobilized catalysts can't coagulate milk appropriately, possessing to detachment of the peptide obligation of K-Casein, and that the obvious coagulating movement of immobilized rennets is because of draining of the protein from the help. Various kinds of ordinary cheeses have been effectively made by utilizing recombinant rennet on a test scale. No significant contrasts have been distinguished between cheeses made with recombinant chymosins or regular chemicals, in regards to cheddar yield, surface, smell, taste, and ripening.Cheese aging is an unpredictable procedure interceded by biochemical and biophysical changes during wh ich a dull curd is formed into a develop cheddar with trademark flavor, surface, and fragrance. The attractive properties are created by the fractional and steady breakdown of sugars, lipids, and proteins during maturing, intervened by a few operators (I) lingering coagulants, (ii) starter microscopic organisms and their chemicals, (iii) nonstarter microbes and their compounds, (iv) indigenous milk catalysts, particularly proteinases, and (v) optional inocula with their enzymes.Proteolysis happens in all the cheddar assortments and is an essential for trademark flavor improvement that can be directed by appropriate utilization of the above specialists. Cheddar maturing is basically an enzymatic procedure which can be quickened by increasing action of the key proteins. This has the benefit of starting progressively explicit activity for flavor improvement contrasted with utilization of raised temperatures that can bring about quickening bothersome vague responses, and therefore off f lavor development.Enzymes might be added to create explicit flavors in cheeses, for instance lipase option for the advancement of Parmesan or Blue-type cheddar flavors. The pathways prompting the development of flavor mixes are to a great extent obscure, and in this way the utilization of exogenous proteins to quicken maturing is generally an experimental procedure. In addition, there are Proteolytic compounds of lactic corrosive and microbes in matured milk products.This framework is made out of proteinases which at first divides the milk protein to peptides; peptidases which separate the peoptides to little peptides and amino acids; and transport framework liable for cell take-up of little peptides and amino acids. Lactic corrosive microscopic organisms have a complex proteolytic framework equipped for changing over milk casein to the free amino acids and peptides essential for their development. These proteinases incorporate extracellular proteinases, endopeptidases, aminopeptida ses, tripeptidases, and proline-explicit peptidases, which are all serine proteases.Aminopeptidases are significant for the advancement of flavor in aged milk items, since they are equipped for discharging single amino corrosive deposits from oligopeptides shaped by extracellular proteinase action. In any case, the other minor chemicals having restricted applications in dairy handling include: glucose oxidase, catalase, superoxide dismutase, sulphydryl oxidase, lactoperoxidase, and lysozymes. Glucose oxidase and catalase are frequently

Global Warming Essay -- Climate Change

Progressing to clean vitality sources will include an approach that includes a broad measure of research in the fields of science, financial aspects, and governmental issues. It is vital that the United States considers vitality assets that decline both natural and wellbeing impacts. In any case, condition and wellbeing impacts are not by any means the only perspectives that must be considered as the United States moves to cleaner vitality assets. The intensity of the United States’ economy all in all and employer stability must be considered. (Confronting Our Energy Realities† 4) Therefore, the progress must be controlled. The change ought not impeding to the residents of the United States. Beforehand, government officials with the expectations of propelling a more secure condition built up acts, for example, the Clean Air Act and Clean Water Act. Notwithstanding, because of the Environmental Protection Agency, a few states, and lobbyist, these demonstrations have adversely affected a few offices and employments. Congress must reconsider laws to permit business to comprehend what is important to keep staying a piece of the market. (Confronting Our Energy Realities† 4) The residents of the United States vote to figure out which government officials produce the vitality approaches for the United States. In this manner, as a strategy for guarantying that casting a ballot residents are additionally educated residents, vitality training ought to be open. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission informs residents in the territories encompassing an atomic plant about atomic vitality. Be that as it may, they ought to extend their instruction to all residents. As it is ridiculous to completely take out coal, and a few people are against its utilization, vitality plants utilizing clean coal should offer instructive measures to illuminate residents of its focal points.

Pursuing 3 Doctoral Degrees IV with a Non-Traditional Pre-Med

UPDATE FROM CASSANDRA [April 28, 2014]: As a personal update, I wanted to share that I am no longer considering applying to medical school or pursuing a career as a physician scientist. I have stated before that I feel that transparency is of the utmost importance in this process and journey, so I am choosing to be as transparent as possible. I once tweeted that my dreams [had] no debt ceiling and I blogged for several posts about my elaborate educational plan. From the beginning it was just that a plan, but it does not make it any less difficult to come back and say this path is no longer right for me. I was, and still am, passionate about infectious disease research as it relates to virology, pathology, and other medical specialities. I do not feel that I have changed my mind so much as I have stepped back and taken a long, hard look at reality. Truthfully, and reasonably, my dreams do have a debt ceiling; they have a time maximum; and they have a sacrifice quota. Because I entere d into a marriage with someone else four years ago, every decision I make for my future directly affects someone else. Several circumstances in our life together have led to the decision that this journey is no longer financially, or emotionally, practical for us. I am 100% at peace with this decision, as it was made early this year, and feel that my time spent as a premed was beneficial for my own growth and personal development. I hope that my experiences can help others make such an important decision for themselves, as well. Thank you. Get ready to read about Cassandra Hendrix, a nontraditional pre-med student and author of the blog Two Strange White Flowers (read on for an explanation of this title). Thank you Cassandra for sharing your story with us – we wish you the best of luck and hope you keep us posted! Accepted: Wed like to get to know you! Where are you from? Where and what did you study (or are studying) as an undergrad? Whats your favorite (non-school) book? Cassandra: I grew up in a tiny little town on the outskirts of the Appalachian mountains of North Carolina called Brasstown. I graduated high school in 2009 and moved to South Carolina the fall of that year to attend a small technical college. I married my husband, Matthew, the following year and switched majors from English to early childhood development. I graduated in May of 2012 with an associate degree in applied science. To make an incredibly long story as short as possible, my husband and I moved back to North Carolina after I graduated for a gap year to pursue a few projects that ultimately did not work out as intended. Given the opportunity to return to college, I began to question what in the world I actually wanted to do with my life. I re-enrolled at Tri-County Technical College in August of this year for a second associate degree in science, building on previously earned credits. I hope to transfer to a university next year. I’m currently taking standard pre-medic al science courses and I plan to major in microbiology at the next institution. My favorite non-school book is The Road by Cormac McCarthy. I ventured out of my comfort zone in reading it, as it is a post-apocalyptic novel, and was pleasantly surprised by how lovely McCarthy’s manipulation of grammar and punctuation (or lack thereof) read. If I see copies of it at a used book store I usually pick them up and try to give them to others as gifts; I truly think it is that good of a work. Accepted: Can you tell us more about your position as a â€Å"nontraditional† med applicant and your med school plan? Cassandra: There are several factors that describe me as a nontraditional student. I am a first-generation college student, which is typically defined as the fact that neither of your parents or legal guardians attended or completed college. I am also a career-changer; I did not originally enroll in college as a premedical student and I hold a degree that is entirely removed from that specific career choice. As of this past fall I am also a returning student, not part of the straight-from-high-school demographic (even though that is how I originally began my post-secondary education). I’m nontraditional in the sense that I’m atypical, if you will, from the standard college student. I have crafted my educational plan over the course of many months and it is something that I am most proud of. I have blogged about it extensively, and plan to continue blogging as the journey unfolds. My plan is simply an idealization of what I want my educational career to be. My goal is to pursue zoonotic virology, which is the study of viruses that originate in nonhuman animals. I am interested in viruses that cross the species barrier and are infectious to humans. I feel the best way to achieve this goal is to pursue three doctoral degrees: a doctorate of veterinary medicine, a doctorate of philosophy in the sciences, and a doctorate of medicine. Initially, I was quite wary of sharing my personal aspirations due to the possibility of criticism and judgment. However, this is a path that I am truly inspired by and it serves a higher purpose than simply earning the formal title Dr. Dr. Dr. Hendrix. I am an avid supporter of graduate education and feel that it leads to opportunities that might not otherwise be available. In deciding to pursue all three paths I am going to receive a circumspect view of the subject. I chose to start with veterinary medicine because it is the origin of the type of viruses I want to work with, then move on to the research doctorate so I can gain experience researching disease with an extensive foundation in animal science, and complete the endeavor with a medical doctorate. Ultimately, I want to have the qualification necessary to practice medicine on humans. My actual career interest is infectious disease pathology, and I would like to eventually work on zoonotic viral outbreaks and public awareness for an organization like the National Institutes of Health. Accepted: What people or experiences have inspired you to pursue a future in medicine? Cassandra: This is almost as complex of an answer as trying to describe my educational plan. It essentially can be broken down into two parts:   First, I’m going to reveal something about myself that I have reserved until this moment in time: I was a â€Å"Medicaid kid.† Government provision for healthcare is the reason I was able to have near-cancerous lesions removed from my tonsils at seven years old, have my vision corrected at fourteen years old, was able to manage extreme allergic sensitivities throughout childhood, and able to receive necessary treatment during emergency situations. It is also the reason that the treatment, both medical and social, I received differed from other patients. I am not stating this to victimize myself, but rather to shed light on the reality that in certain situations there seems to be an evident bias against patients with government insurance. Whether it is because the demographic is typically low-income or because the process of receiving payment is so arduous, a perceived difference in treatment can often be painfully felt. I have never had a primary care physician or family doctor; I saw whoever would take my insurance card for whatever medical care I needed. Since losing eligibility at 19, I have not had health insurance of any kind and have been to a doctor thrice in the past three years. Again, this is not so I can provide some commentary on government healthcare or stand on my soapbox to declare my political views; the situations I have described were simply my reality and a piece of my life that has strongly shaped how I feel about the practice of medicine in the United States. Due to these emotional experiences I never thought I could be a doctor. I thought physicians were on such a different plane academically and financially that such a career could not be a possibility for me. As I grew older, I came to the realization that my financial situation, economic status, and social standing had nothing to do with my ability to become a physician. The second part comes in the form of personal interaction. During the course of our gap year my husband and I became friends with a man who, for the sake of this story, I’m going to call Sam. Sam was an interesting individual, very reserved, with an ailment that had haunted him for over ten years. It presented physically and seemed to have diminished his sense of confidence. Out of a love for natural healing I was convinced that an herbal infusion held the cure. Matthew and I zealously crafted tinctures and formulated teas, and other concoctions we thought could be of use. While these preparations alleviated certain symptoms, they (of course) did not phase the ailment itself. He had spent many years and thousands of dollars seeing specialists searching for name and a cure. All of these efforts were to no avail. His condition reemerges every few years, each time creating pain and discomfort. After meeting Sam, I realized how much compassion I have for people who are ill. Additi onally, the mystery surrounding the sickness intrigued me and piqued my intellectual interests. Sam will always be the initial inspiration for why I chose virology. I wanted to help him, to heal him, because he represented the greater whole of mankind. The only way that was ever going to be possible was if I spent my life researching viruses and practicing medicine. Accepted: Whats been your biggest challenge so far in transitioning back to school? How have you worked to overcome that challenge? Cassandra: My biggest challenge so far has been adjusting to the â€Å"pre-med lifestyle†. In my first degree I excelled in all of my courses and graduated as an honor student. However, I did not have to take college-level science and mathematics courses and the level of memorization required was slim in comparison to certain premedical subjects. When I returned to college this fall it had been four years since I graduated high school. I immersed myself in the basic level sciences and assumed that it would be a fairly easy transition. I did somewhat poorly on my first few exams, and I even dropped my algebra course in order to lessen my workload. This resulted in my losing some confidence in my academic abilities. I began to search for bloggers with similar experiences and I interacted with other premedical students on Twitter. I sought help from my college’s tutoring center, and I also took time away from my blog in short bursts to really evaluate my commitment. Giving myself some time to absorb the situation and find a rhythm was essential in fighting â€Å"burnout.† I feel like it is extremely easy to let yourself become overwhelmed, but it is important to realize that the transition into a college student is a process. So, meeting the challenge is not something I feel like you have to overcome as much as it is finding the courage to trust in your own evolution. Once I chose to do so, the material became enthralling and enjoyable to learn. Keeping my focus on my future goals inspired me to live up to the challenge of my new life. Accepted: Can you tell us about your blog Two Strange White Flowers? Why did you decide to blog, and how did you come up with that name? Cassandra: The idea to start a blog came to me in November of 2012, and I began actively blogging this past April when I enrolled at a small distance-learning college in Vermont. I was not able to continue my education there because the format was very nontraditional, so I removed all posts and decided to start anew. I searched for hours for other bloggers with experiences similar to mine and found very few, most of which had let their blog go some years prior. In an attempt to connect with others, I felt the urge to open myself up and be transparent with my own journey. I concluded that if no one read my posts then the blog could serve as a diary, sort of like a first-hand account of this wonderful adventure I have embarked on! Fortunately there are people who read it (which I feel incredibly humbled by) and I am excited that, in sharing my experiences, I might be able to encourage others towards a similar path. I decided to title it â€Å"Two Strange White Flowers† upon its inception. My husband had mentioned that he wanted to start a blog eventually and, since he is a mathematical physicist, I told him he should consider titling his â€Å"The Time Traveller.† One of our favorite books is H.G. Wells’ The Time Machine, so the suggestion was in an effort to reflect his interests. We read the book together before we were married and I remember falling in love with the story, how eloquently written it was, and the plight of the Time Traveller sitting with me long after the book was put back on the shelf. There is a small excerpt from the book I have also put on my blog that reads thus: â€Å"[The Time Traveller,] I know†¦thought but cheerlessly of the advancement of mankind, and saw in the growing pile of civilization only a foolish heaping that must inevitably†¦destroy its makers in the end. If that is so, it remains for us to live as though it were not so. But to me the future is still black and blank†¦a vast ignorance, lit at a few casual places by the memory of his story. And I have by me, for my comfort, two strange white flowers – shriveled now, and brown and flat and brittle – to witness that even when mind and strength had gone, gratitude and a mutual tenderness still lived on in the heart of man.† I found this ending conclusion of the book incredibly inspiring and wanted to pay homage to great classic literature by titling my blog after so prominent a statement. As a personal connection I feel that my husband and I, because we are nontraditional, are like the two strange white flowers the narrator references, seemingly out of place and out of time. However, the flowers are indicative of much more than what their physical existence implies; they also represent the future. Throughout the book, the Time Traveller is sharing an elaborate story of how he traveled 802,000 years into the future and things were so drastically different from the time he and his acquaintances are familiar with (Victorian England). He leaves two flowers behind, both a symbol of the time he traveled to and the future of the world in its entirety. I chose to name my blog â€Å"Two Strange White Flowers† to represent the journey I am on (inevitably intertwined with that of my husband, â€Å"The Time Traveller†) and the future that this path represents. I want my story to be an inspiration to those who feel the need to begin anew, but who are afraid. The â€Å"future is still black and blank†¦a vast ignorance, lit at a few casual places† only by the radiance of our dreams. Accepted: Can you share some advice for other pre-med students who are just starting out their journeys? Cassandra: My advice mainly consists of suggestions for nontraditional students, as that is the only scope of the premedical experience I have. However, I think it is most likely applicable to anyone who has chosen to pursue higher education, whether it is medicine, research, or anything in between! 1.  The past does not define the present. Yes, it gives this moment context and meaningful direction, but it is certainly not the definition of who and what you are. Dwelling on negative aspects of your past experiences will not help you take positive steps towards your future; if anything it only leads to frustration. Try to not turn your past into a scarlet letter because there is much more to the nontraditional process than focusing on what could have been better. Whether you failed out of college the first time, you did not do well on standardized entrance exams, or you lacked direction, it is important to not let these things define you. Choose to move forward from where you are, and do not regret where you have been. 2.  Keep organized and stay focused. I cannot stress this enough. This was undoubtedly my biggest struggle, even though I sought help from others in how to go about â€Å"keeping it all together.† The most valuable thing, to me, is finding your own rhythm. How do you prefer to study? What time of day is best for you to read your notes, textbook, etc.? What kind of environment is conducive to your learning process? In addition to keeping an agenda and calendar, it is also important to evaluate your response to questions like this in order to maximize your learning. The best universal advice I can offer is to work diligently, effectively, and do not be afraid to ask questions. 3.  Don’t give up. This is a common phrase espoused by most motivational propaganda and has unfortunately become a clichà ©. However, looking past the simplicity, these words represent grasping hold of hope. Just in case you might be like me and need to hear it twenty times a day, I am going to say it just for you (yes you who are reading this): DO NOT GIVE UP! Do whatever it takes to encourage yourself to keep pressing forward. Check out books about your subject, start a conversation with your professor, form a study group, watch educational videos, visit medical schools, do whatever it takes! But whatever you do, do not give up on your educational goals. It lies with you; you are the only one who can decide what is best for your life, what you want to do with your life, and how you are going to do it. In accordance with this thought, I wanted to share a quote from The Road. McCarthy’s characters are unnamed, simply a boy and his father, and a conversation takes place midway through the book regarding the father’s concern for his child. He realizes the hardship his son will face and wants to encourage him to always press onward. McCarthy omits punctuation in his writing, making it difficult to sometimes navigate, and the quote I have shared begins with words from the father: â€Å"You have to carry the fire. I dont know how to. Yes, you do. Is the fire real? The fire? Yes it is. Where is it? I dont know where it is. Yes you do. Its inside you. It always was there. I can see it.† We each have a fire burning within us, a passion that brings joy to our lives.  Sometimes it can be smothered by failure, or is weakened by a sudden gale of  Ã‚  hardship. Despite all of this, the fire never truly burns out and can always be  rekindled. Stoke your fire, keep it ablaze, and allow your passion to shine a light  into the future.

Cognitivism in Philosophy Essay Sample free essay sample

In this paper I will supply both sides of cognitivism and non-cognitivism and argue that non-cognitivism is superior to cognitivism and that it is besides more credible. I will foremost explicate cognitivism and non-cognitivism and interrupt them down into smaller subdivisions and depict the statements for and against both. Next. I will travel over the points on which cognitivism and non-cognitivism agree and disagree upon. Then. I will travel over some positive and negative statements that go along with cognitivism. After that I will speak about some positives and negatives of non-cognitivism. Finally. I will state you where I stand on the meta-ethics statement of cognitivism and non-cognitivism and why I agree with that theory. First thing I will travel over. and interrupt down cognitivism and non-cognitvism in meta-ethic doctrine. Cognitivism in doctrine is the meta-ethical theory that moral judgements province facts and are either true or false. Moral judgements are. or express provinces of beliefs. A strong cognitivist theory is one which holds moral judgements disposed for rating in footings of truth and falseness. and can be the consequence of cognitively accessing the facts which makes them true. Cognitively measuring is of or refering to the mental procedures of perceptual experience. memory. judgement. and concluding. as contrasted with emotional and picks made by will. Cognitivist theories can be naturalist or non-naturalist. A naturalist believes that moral judgements are true or false by a natural province of personal businesss. A natural province of personal businesss is a province of personal businesss that consists in the case of a natural belongings. Natural belongingss are belongingss of natural scientific disciplines or in psychological science. Non-naturalist think that moral belongingss are non linked to natural belongingss. Non-naturalism bases in resistance to naturalism. which claims that moral footings and belongingss are reducible to non-moral footings and belongingss. Non-Cognitivism provinces that moral judgements express non-cognitive provinces such as emotions or desires. So non-cognitivitism believes that judgements are non capable of being true or fals e. Although it may be true that person have a desire to make something it is non true that desires themselves can be true or false. Following I will travel over the points on which cognitivism and non-cognitivism agree and disagree upon. Both cognitivism and non-cognitivism trade with moral judgement and if an action is right or incorrect. They both trade with stating if an act/action is right or bad. You can non judge an action on being right or bad merely from the pure fact that your beliefs and faith says its incorrect or due to the fact that it was desirable to make or emotionally connected. Cognitivism says that it can be determined by beliefs and is truth-apt and non-cognitivism says that is depends upon emotions and desires which can be neither true nor false. You can non find if someone’s emotions or desires are true or false therefore non-cognitivism is non truth-apt. Cognitivism and non-cognitivism disagree on the logical thinking for an act/action being true or false and besides on the agent being beliefs. or emotions and desires. Now I will travel over some positives and negatives of cognitivis m. Strong cognitivism without moral pragmatism is argued that although moral judgements are disposed to be true or false. and are ever false ( Mackie 1977 Error Theory ) . This is because there are no moral belongingss or facts of this kind required to turn out moral judgements true. Moral mistake theory is a place characterized by two propositions: ( I ) all moral claims are false and ( two ) we have ground to believe that all moral claims are false. Mackie gave two statements for moral mistake theory. The first statement is called the Argument from Queerness. which has moral claims that imply motive internalism. Internalism is the claim that there is an internal and necessary connexion between unfeignedly doing a moral judgement and being motivated to move in the mode prescribed by that judgement. Because motive internalism can be false so are all moral claims. The 2nd statement called the Argument from Disagreement. maintains that any moral claim X requires a ground claim Y. So if killing people was incorrect and true so everybody has a ground non to kill people because it’s incorrect. Even if you find pleasure in killing people and you are suffering when non killing. But if you won’t acquire in problem for killing. so the liquidator has every gr ound to kill. and no ground non to make so. All moral claims are so false. A weak cognitivist theory is one which holds that moral judgements are ( I ) apt for rating in footings of truth and falseness. ( II ) but can non be the consequence of cognitive entree to moral belongingss and province of personal businesss. Weak cognitivism agrees with strong cognitivsm on premiss one but disagrees with premiss two. This rejects moral pragmatism. non by denying the being of moral fact but by denying that those facts are independent of human sentiment. Moral pragmatism is the meta-ethical position which claims that: ( I ) Ethical sentences express propositions. ( II ) some such propositions are true. ( III ) those propositions are made true by nonsubjective characteristics of the universe. independent of subjective sentiment. Since I merely went over some positives and negatives of cognitivism. I will now travel over some positives and negatives of non-cognitivism. Cognitvist claim that moral judgements can show beliefs which being motivated to make something or to prosecute a class of action is ever a affair of a belief and a desire. So if you are motivated to work difficult excess hours because you have the desire to purchase something particular. It is internal but is a fact. Then ( X ) is good. so you are motivated to prosecute the class of action to ( X ) . So if moral judgement expressed a belief. it would hold to be a belief which supported an internal connexion to a desire. It would hold to be a truth because that’s an agent that possesses the belief which possess’ desire. But no belief is needfully connected to desires because beliefs and desires are distinguishable beings and it is impossible to hold necessary connexion between the two. So moral judgements are non truth-apt. Emotivism is a meta-ethical position that claims that ethical sentences do non show propositions but emotional attitudes. In Emotivism a moral statement isn’t literally a statement about the speaker’s feelings on the subject. but expresses those feelings with emotion. When an emotivist says â€Å"murder is wrong† it’s like stating â€Å"down with murder† or merely stating â€Å"murder† while doing a horror-stricken face. or a thumbs-down gesture at the same clip as stating â€Å"murder is wrong† . E motivism watches the manner people use linguistic communication and upholds that a moral judgement expresses the attitude that a individual takes on a peculiar issue. I think there is more to ethics than merely the look of an attitude or an effort to act upon behaviour. I think emotivism needs a better account and set of regulations to follow because non everyone has the same emotions and feelings toward different things. Finally I will state you where I stand on the meta-ethics statement of cognitivism and non-cognitivism. I find non-cognitivsm more credible that cognitivism. Non-cognitivism is a affair of emotions and desires non beliefs. Emotions and desires can non be proven true or false. Feelingss are internal to a individual and can merely be felt by the individual holding the emotions. You do things in life because of desires. Desires drive you to your determinations non beliefs. Beliefs can assist to carry your determination but you have to hold the desire before anything else can and will be done. I could be Christian and my faith believes that abortion is incorrect. but emotionally I couldn’t manage a babe at this age and I donâ €™t have the fundss while I am in school. So. now I have the desire to acquire an abortion. With that being said you can’t state me that my emotions are true or false or that my desires to acquire an abortion are true or false. Therefore. everything in meta-ethics can non be explained nor answered by some agent in nature or in the universe and can’t ever be true or false. Besides. some words have factual significances along with normative constituents that can be used either manner. Where the word might be true but the emotions along with the word can non be proven. Beliefs can’t incorrect or right because different people have different beliefs. Some civilization find it alright to do human forfeits for the Gods above yet other faiths don’t agree with human forfeit and see it as slaying. So beliefs can be true or false but that can non state whether an action is right or incorrect. Some things in doctrine go against the societal norms and convey up inquiries and premises that most people would disapprove or differ with. But philosophical understandings set up premises and counter statements to state whether the thought you have for or against a theory will be accepted or denied by most people. In decision. I provided both sides of cognitivism and non-cognitivism and argue that non-cognitivism is superior to cognitivism and that it is besides more credible. I foremost explained cognitivism and non-cognitivism and broke them down into smaller subdivisions and described the statements for and against both. Then. I went over the points on which cognitivism and non-cognitivism agree and disagree upon. I following went over some positive and negative statements that go along with cognitivism. After that I talked about some positives and negatives of non-cognitivism. Finally. I told you where I stand on the meta-ethics statement of cognitivism and non-cognitivism and why I agree with non-cognitivism over cognitivism. Doctrine is all in what you believe. experience. or want. So how can there perchance be a right or incorrect reply to any inquiry?
