Chapter 6: My career

Biochemistry in a country like this where science was never and will never be a priority is not a well-known career, however, at least for me it has an incredible utility think about it in times of pandemic like these It’s not just essential in the search for a cure or a vaccine, unbelievable is it? But still people do not know it and do not know what could be done with it and I think it is necessary and the duty of us as scientists to carry not only knowledge, but the career or scientific careers to the people, because I believe that by doing so the priorities of the people and especially of the government will increase. This is why, while I would love to devote myself to research I think it would be a much deeper change to bring science and especially my career to people so that science can advance in this country where you only think about the short term and because of it is so mediocre because you don’t realize how important this area is.

Keeping outside my hater moment, this pandemic produced on me a hurricane of emotions. I can’t get out of my house and see my friends or don’t have time to rest and think of something other than university makes me feel without energy and that frustrates me a lot.
