Self-Introduction
My journey for the love of science began the day I realized that whenever I
somehow cut my finger; my grandmother would ask one of her helpers to find this
grass which she would then crush in her palm and apply it on my wounded area.
That was the day when my curiosity aroused; I wanted to know why a grass would
heal my wound so quickly. Years later now I have come to know it was wheat
grass that she used to apply and science has yet to tell me what is the exact
component secreted by this grass that healed my wounds so quickly. As Ralph
Emerson said Men love to wonder, and that is the seed of science this is where
my journey for finding answers to why began. It is and has always been my
incessant aspiration to investigate and contrive the enigmatic ways life on earth
works in the micro-cosmos represented by cells and molecules, thus leading me to
diligently pursue the path of a biologist.
The complex relationship between cells and other biological structures has
intrigued me for years, and drives me to expand my knowledge of the molecules
that create the world around me. Pursuing a field in Biomedical Science will allow
me to produce constructive research while also establishing association with my
co-workers resulting in generating a powerful network of individuals who are all
well connected to expanding findings and information.
Learning, Comprehending and Education has always been my first priority. I was
awarded the Daily Star Awards for my excellent results in my O Levels and with
my consistent diligence I was able to achieve a place for myself in my countrys
top University and got admitted to the Department of Botany, University of Dhaka.
In the following years because of my achievements in my undergraduate years, I
was one of the 23 students who were selected by our University and the Indian
High Commission to meet the President of India, Sri Pranab Mukherjee at
Rashtrapati Bhavan, Delhi, India. I was also awarded the National Science and
Technology (NST) Fellowship from the Ministry of Science and Technology,
Bangladesh for my research work during my graduate years.
I have come across some of the most grueling subjects during my undergraduate
career, ranging from genetics to biochemistry to microbiology to cytology to
pathology to physiology leading me to appreciate and comprehend the diversity of
biological science. My passion for researching led me to undertake researching
apprenticeship in the Department of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology,
University of Dhaka. While all of the courses in my undergraduate captivated me,
the area that most interested me was genetics, thus I decided to learn more and join
this department. I learnt how to separate out a single gene and prepare the sample
for gel electrophoresis; being able to recover, separate and analyze my DNA was
truly amazing, and opened my eyes to the many applications of modern biology.
