Thank you! For Case Western Reserve University, I am interested in the Molecular Medicine program. I will be doing research in the Cleveland Clinic, Lerner Research Institute. I first heard about this program when I was helping my sister move into her college two summers ago. I was born in Ohio and haven't visited the state since so I was intrigued by the city. After I helped my sister move in, I also made time to walk around the college town, museums, and hospitals. It was an eye-opening moment

Stem cells and their possible role in the treatment of Lou Gehrig's disease or ALS, has been extensively researched within the scientific community. Although a cure for the condition has not been found, promising advances in the use of stem cells in the treatment of the condition have been made. ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord (National Institute of Health, 2015). Patients suffering from this

patients. Research in this field is very important because as we become older, our organs begin to deteriorate and shut down. Having a great-grandmother with Alzheimer’s, she could have benefited from these new discoveries which could have possibly given me more time with her. This article relates to the advancements in scientific research involving a process called Parabiosis, which is when two animals are not only joined surgically, but shares each other’s vascular system. Although research on Parabiosis

thing because technically it takes life. The argument is that even though life is being created through fertilization of an embryo, the life cannot feel or understand pain yet, making the process of genetic engineering justifiable. Also, study and research through genetic engineering will ultimately help those who can feel pain. This procedure will cure thousands, and thousands more will be healthier and better off because of the advances we will make. Human genetic engineering is the process of

leads to become a spinal cord (1,2). Development of the CNS involves many complex mechanisms beginning at the onset of transformation of a single layer of ectodermal cells, the neuroectoderm until the end of the differentiation process resulting into highly complex structure involving variety of neural cell types (1,2). A large number of cell types need to be arranged spatially and temporally to form a complex structure during an embryo development. CNS being one such complex structure formed during embryonic
