"Ignorance affirms or denies emphatically. Science doubt" Voltaire . French philosopher "I'm going to be a... when I grow up" This sentence is very common to hear it among children, however I don't remember saying it because I never wanted to be like someone else. When I discovered the great minds of the world I dreamed of being a little of what they were.  In this world there been great scientist, however, those that I have never been able to forget are James Watson, Francis Crick, Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin who co-discovered the double-helix structure of DNA in 1953, which formed the basis for modern biotechnology. Today I'll tell you about Rosalind Franklin , her contribution and how difficult it is to be a woman in science. Rosalind Franklin (1920-1958) was a British chemist; she enrolled at Newnham College, Cambridge, in 1938 and studied chemistry. In 1941, she was awarded Second Class Honors in her finals, which, at that t

My favourite book and film

Hello everyone! My hobby in this life are watch films and read. My first book was The Knight in Rusty Armor , my parents gave it to me when I learned to read at age 6 and I remember that at the beginning I was disappointed because at age 6 I expected to read fables or some princess book and not a novel. Later I thanked them very much because I loved the book. At my age I've read more than 250 books and I hope read more, last year I was really bored and a good friend named Hugo recommended me to read The Solicitude of Prime Numbers by Paolo Giordano , when I finished almost cry because the novel is so powerful, realist, sad.

We keep this life in a photograph We made these memories for ourselves Photographs is something that I really love, I enjoy take and see them. I was born in a time when digital cameras were just emerging, my family bought our first camera when I was 6 years old and I remember that the camera used photographic rolls, which we then took to the Kodak store to print the photos. Now, we are in the technological age, all the cameras are digital, that has meant an improvement in the quality of the photos. We went from black and white photos to HD  photos, now it's not necessary to print the photographs because the computers allow to save them, is more easy. Thanks to the technology I can take photographs with my smartphone or camera at any time and place, thank to this I have developed a hobby. My favorites photographs are those that show beautiful landscapes because they are able to teach us the wonderful nature. Today I will show you my two favor

Music In My Life

¿Music? Music is the expression of the soul... In my life I can say that music is all for me because I like write with music, cook with music... I enjoy almost any kind of music, since Rap to Asian Pop.  Depending on my mood... From my stepfather I learn to love Hip-Hop in Spanish, from my mother I learn to love Balads and Salsa.  When I'm stressed I use to listen to the piano, my favourite pianist are Yiruma and I really love the song River flows in you because that song is so magic for me, when I   feel sad I use to listen to Rock or Balad really sad. Also I use to listen to Salsa or Merengue when I want to dance.    When I was 14 I used to listen to Korean Pop, Chinese Pop and French music, in present I still listen to but with less often. My favourite singer is Chojin and my favourite group are Pearl Jam and La Renga. Last time I am obsessed with a multicultural band called  LaSmala ( family  in Gypsy),  their music genre is a mixture of rhythms and
