This week we visited UCSD to learn about what it is like in a real laboratory. In Dr.Sasha Kauffman’s lab we were able to take a tour and experience soe if the work they do their. Learning about neuroscience was really interesting and I think that it was easier to understand because we heard it from younger college students and they used language that made it easier for us, for example, they said that we should look for the “Eyebrows” of the brain and how it slowly forms into a “unibrow” while taking samples of mice brains. Another thing that I enjoyed at UCSD was the campus. The alumni that we met used to attend to HTHCV and without meeting them and knowing that they’re one step ahead of me and have experienced all the stress that I might face in a few years. It was reassuring that even though I might not have good math skills all the communication skills will not go to waste when we have to socialize with the people around us either in a friendly way or a professional manner.This week we also looked at what kind of art stencil art is and I found it really cool because i'm used to the traditional acrylic painting and pencil drawing. Although it might be difficult to make the background collage because I get really picky when it comes to things like collages. I tend to make things that don't have text because I find it distracting from the visuals in the college and i’ve also noticed that when we do make magazine collages I always have either a color theme that looks bright but dark. I'm excited but nervous to see what it will look like on a canvas because I am trying to push myself to use the primary colors this time around.
