STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

No person in this world born with particular desire to do something extraordinary. However, soon after his thought process is maturing, he just inclined over something spontaneously. I am also on the same trend hence, my thought process was quite dissipated till I get admitted department of pharmaceutical science at the University of Dhaka, best institution of Bangladesh. During my undergraduate studies, I gained the comprehensive understanding of chemical processes inside the biological system; to relate where, why and how it operates, molecular etiology of various diseases and mechanism of drug actions. That builds my interest to achieve cutting-edge knowledge in biological chemistry to delve the physicochemical process,

Unfortunately the doctoral degree in biological chemistry in my country is very limited because of the lack of adequate academic and research facility. Department of Chemistry at Tulane University offers Ph.D. degree under the supervision of supremely trained, experienced and internationally recognized professors with state-of-the-art research facility. Personally, I want to do research on the understanding of disease states from molecular level to the whole organisms so that it is possible to design most potent and safest therapeutic interventions. I feel that studying a PhD in the department of Chemistry at Tulane University will open windows for me to decipher the unresolved human disease on the viewpoint of biochemical and medicinal explanation. Here I expect to find the comprehensive research in biochemistry around the themes of biochemical, molecular and bioorganic chemistry techniques. That is the reason which make Tulane University as one of my top …show more content…
Working in a large organizational environment teaches me to work in a group and adapt any kind of situation which can help me to perform my duty as a group member in the research lab. My leadership and innovative quality are fully implemented here which can help me to be an active member in the lab and generate innovative idea into practice in my research. However, as I am always inclined to independent research, I figured out that teaching is the most suitable profession for me. Consequently, I joined Southeast University (SEU) as a lecturer. Due to my enthusiasm and interest in research work, I was appointed as Chief Administrator of Organic Pharmacy laboratory and Co-Administrator of Animal house of SEU which helps me to learn how a research laboratory is set up and maintained. I found that the research facility is very limited to perform sophisticated research work here and we as teachers need to be trained further to give student up-to-date knowledge. That also buttresses my motivation to achieve a doctoral degree. Currently, I am supervising 3 undergraduate project students, which helps me to understand already garnered knowledge with further

    My choice to have biochemistry as my major was the most logical, because for all of my life I have been interested in what life is composed of. I looked at the incredible things that people and animals do and I found that all the intricate working of biology and chemistry that made all of their actions possible, only added to the awesomeness of it all. Another important factor in my life that started my interest into the science of biology was my mother, who has a genetic anemia called Fanconi Anemia. She has lived with this genetic disease for all of her life and it has had a toll on her quality of life. From my earliest memories she has struggled with blood transfusions and bone marrow biopsies.…

    I decided to major in biochemistry—the chemistry of life—to fully explore my scientific interests. I further pursued biochemistry through working in a chemical immunology lab at the Doisy Research Center. The lab’s interests have clinical implications through our work with macrophage migration inhibitory factor, a pro-inflammatory cytokine molecule associated with rheumatoid arthritis. So far, I have been able to help set up experiments, run agarose gel electrophoresis, determine protein and DNA concentration, and perform a bacterial transformation experiment. These experiences have been very satisfying, as I am working with and manipulating the things I read about in my textbooks.…

    Cutting precisely on the lines, making sure I didn’t stray and accidently cut out part of an article, I carefully extracted the Sudoku puzzle from the daily newspaper before my father came to the breakfast table to read it. Then, working as fast as I could, I began deciphering the puzzle, eliminating numbers I knew didn’t belong in a certain box and writing, in tiny print, all the numbers that could potentially fit. Gradually, as the pieces came together, the completed puzzle unfolded. I glanced at the clock, scarfed down my cereal (which had gone soggy), and raced out the door just in time to catch the bus. During my hour long bus ride to school I would reflect on how I had solved the puzzle, wondering if there was a better way to approach…

    Before my family migrated to America from Vietnam when I was twelve, we were living in a society where health was not an everyday issue or concern. Vietnam was a society where the poor had low access to health care, thus creating an indifference toward their health that resulted in many deaths from diseases. The Vietnamese economy went through a depression during the war, making medical instruments rare and expensive, and ultimately resulted in a gradual decline in health education. My desire to be pharmacist arose when I learned that these diseases were treatable, curable, and preventable with proper care and services from trained personnel.…
