About a career-related website :D

Usually in our career we must carry out research on specific compounds and write scientific reports.

 PubChem is a dynamically growing database of chemical molecules and their activities against biological assays. The system is maintained by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), a component of the National Library of Medicine, which is part of the United States National Institutes of Health (NIH). PubChem can be accessed for free through a web user interface in:

https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/

 PubChem contains three primary databases: Compounds, Substances and BioAssay. Searching the databases is possible for a broad range of properties such as chemical structure, number of fragments, chemical formula, molecular weight, XLogP and the number of hydrogen bonds donors and acceptors.

 Each result contains information on synonyms, chemical properties, bioactivity and links to structurally related compounds, as well as links to other NCBI databases, such as PubMed.

I use this site every time I require information about a specific compound and their properties. I like this site because it contains updated information and reliable sources (scientific articles). It also has very complete information and a simple interface.

About English Language Challenges :D

As I mentioned, I studied Biochemistry and changed my career two years ago, just when the new mesh began. Therefore, I had already taken English from the old mesh. There were two courses focused on scientific reading and writing. Unfortunately those courses were not comparable with the new mesh. Therefore, I had to give almost all the courses of the new mesh. The classes for me have been a bit boring because I have a good writing and reading skills. Also of the pronunciation because I have learned watching videos and movies. I am very used to reading and writing in English because I have read many scientific texts (papers) at the university. The first time I started blogging (for English 3) it was fun. It was a new experience that helped me to polish my writing skills and dare to write what I think. Nowadays it does not seem so fun anymore. The themes have been repeated and some are really boring. I have a good command of specialized vocabulary because I usually read many text...

About addiction :D

The term "drug abuse" is used to refer to a "non-medical substance with psychoactive effects (capable of producing changes in perception, mood, consciousness and behavior) and susceptible to being self-administered." Thus, the difference between a drug and a drug is not given by pharmacological, chemical or medical criteria, but by two small nuances of instrumental and social type: that is the individual himself who is administered the substance without prescription and that the objective is different from that of the cure of a pathology. In fact, some substances can be considered drugs of abuse or drugs depending on the context: steroids are in principle prescription drugs but if used in gyms to improve physical performance would be considered drugs. One important nuance is that the definition of "drug abuse" refers to substances. Thus, supposed pathologies such as "addiction" to mobile, Internet, sex, video games, shopping and other ...

About my future job :D

As I do not like the system of work in community pharmacy nor the environment in the clinic, my areas of interest are industry and healthcare pharmacy. I consider them to be more stable areas with fixed schedules (ideal to look after children). At first, the salaries are a little lower, but they escalate annually. I would like to have a job in accordance with my personality and abilities. I am a fairly rigorous person who likes order and good writing. Therefore, I have considered a career in the regulatory area of either in industry or healthcare pharmacy. However, as I also like to teach and I have a lot of patience, I am interested in a position that also involves staff training. In general, a pharmacist earns a gross salary of $ 1,190,015 the first year of qualification to $ 1,317,262 in the fourth year of qualification. I really would not want to travel for work, I feel that the stress and responsibilities of the job would ruin the relaxing travel. I prefer to travel in m...
