Exactly, Anon. Exactly. This is why the Ivy League Universities being turned into Hamasnik terrorist bases is so horrifying. Especially with Jew-hating students attacking Jewish students and professors on campus, with the Universities' sanction. The Universities could shut these Jew-hate riots down. The fact that they don't shows that they want them to continue. They're trying to chase away the Jewish students and professors from these schools. That's always the first step. That's what the Nazis did first, too.
This article is taken from the US Holocaust Memorial Museum website. I highly recommend that everyone read the whole article. But even if you read the first paragraph, you'll see the parallels to what is happening on Ivy League campuses today:
.
After Adolf Hitler was appointed German Chancellor in January 1933, the new Nazi government began an effort to completely reorder public and private life in Germany. 
The Nazi regime quickly targeted German universities—among the most elite in the world at the time—for restructuring according to Nazi principles. While the Nazi Ministry of Education initiated reforms, local Nazi organizations and student activists worked to bring Nazi ideals to German campuses. These forces, along with increasing antisemitism under Nazi rule, transformed everyday life at German universities. Throughout this period, students, faculty, and staff made individual decisions that both upheld and opposed Nazi ideology.
With the passage of the "Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service" in 1933, most Jewish professors in Germany were dismissed from their positions. Others, such as Professor Eugen Mittwoch, were able to keep their posts temporarily only due to the political value of their research. After purging Jewish and "politically undesirable" faculty, the regime then targeted the student body with the "Law Against Overcrowding in Schools and Universities." As German authorities continued to "Aryanize" German universities, Jews increasingly lost the opportunity to teach or study. Many non-Jewish Germans sought to benefit from their persecution. 
The daily business of university life continued in the wake of these new policies, but political concerns increasingly influenced the way professors and students worked and studied. The practice of denunciation, as demonstrated by the "Request for the Investigation of Professor Hans Peters," illustrates the danger posed to both students and faculty if they failed to follow new ideological norms. Those willing to voice support for the new regime—whether out of enthusiasm or practicality—often received promotions or other rewards. Meanwhile, many others quietly accepted the new policies and passively benefited from the persecution of their Jewish peers. Very few, such as the small student group in Munich known as the White Rose, took any significant action to resist the Nazi dictatorship.
The Nazi government and its supporters manipulated several aspects of the country's traditional university system to turn German higher education into a crucial source of support for the new regime. For example, the German student population had been largely male long before the Nazi rise to power, and German campuses were dominated by fraternities.  Those organizations maintained traditional military discipline and dress codes, and their alumni groups exercised significant political power both before and after 1933. Fraternities—often working with the Student Council and Nazi Student League—served  as a powerful and violent force for implementing Nazi principles at universities, often going beyond the party platform in their radicalism. A Report on the Camaraderie House for Female Students of Göttingen shows how Nazi student groups used the format of traditional student organizations to train both men and women to become the next generation of Nazi leaders.
Although the regime could rely on many committed student activists, the Third Reich also sought the support of German professors to lend legitimacy to their policies. Because German universities were state institutions, professors' academic careers became vulnerable to the whims and wishes of the Nazi state. While only a small minority of professors had been Nazi Party members before 1933, several prominent professors quickly voiced their support for the Third Reich. In the new German university, political loyalty was valued over academic ability in the assessment of students and in the selection and promotion of professors. Authorities infused university classrooms with Nazi ideology—as shown in the document, "Foundation of the Advanced School of the German Reich". But prioritizing politics over academics affected the quality of German higher education. 
Nevertheless, professors—even enthusiastic supporters of the new regime—often spoke out against some aspects of Nazi policy. The case of Eduard Kohlrausch shows how his opposition to  student-led book burnings caused his removal from the university administration. Dissent against individual policies, however, did not give rise to any concerted resistance movements. German universities as a whole formed a solid base of support for the Nazi regime, contributing valuable knowledge to the development of technology for the war effort as well as logistical support for the Holocaust.
The Nazification of universities overwhelmed the daily lives of students with new requirements, including mandatory lectures, physical exercises, labor duties, and political assemblies. Many students resented those requirements, even if they supported the Nazi Party. In Heidelberg, for example, where the daily life of students was dominated by political instruction and mandatory physical training, large numbers of students withdrew from the university in search of other educational opportunities. As illustrated in the "Memo Regarding Maria-Elisabeth Koch," students also showed varying degrees of enthusiasm for the labor service that was often required of them in territories occupied by Nazi Germany.
The Nazi government's project of remaking German universities was broadly successful, but it produced unintended consequences. The quality of education suffered significantly as classes were regularly cancelled for political assemblies and students' schedules became filled with ideological and paramilitary training. Moreover, purging Jewish faculty deprived German universities of valuable expertise. Within a few years, many observers in Germany and abroad became deeply skeptical about the quality of German higher education in the Third Reich. Propaganda efforts such as the Carl Schurz tour for American professors and students—documented with a slickly produced video—did not prevent protest. The 550th-anniversary celebration of Heidelberg University met with opposition in Europe, even while prominent American universities such as Harvard accepted invitations.
With the defeat of the Third Reich in 1945, Allied forces occupying Germany began a long-term effort to remove the influence of Nazi ideology in German society. Many German academics who made significant contributions to the Nazi war effort fled to the United States, where they lived comfortable lives and their expertise was highly valued by American universities and the US military. In postwar Germany, many faculty and students who had benefited from the Nazis' discriminatory policies without being especially vocal or enthusiastic supporters of the regime sought to cast their dissent or their silence as forms of political resistance to obscure their own complicity. Although many Germans denied having supported the Nazi regime, antisemitism persisted in postwar Germany. The case of Hermann Budzislawski shows the difficulties encountered by the relatively few German Jews who decided to return to Germany after World War II.
Sources in this collection document the choices facing students and faculty pursuing their everyday lives in the shadow of Nazism and the Holocaust. Over the course of this period, as antisemitic discrimination escalated to mass murder, the higher education system proved to be a source of support—rather than opposition—to the party's project of remaking German society.

Robert & Charlotte.
 
In 1922 a young German woman named Charlotte Riefenstahl started studying natural sciences and mathematics in Georg-August University of Göttingen after two years of teaching in a private school in Lauenförde, Charlotte was a bright young woman often referred to by her peers as the most attractive woman on campus. On the 20th of November 1927 at the age of 28, she obtained her PhD under Gustav Tammann Thesis about the rolling process and recrystallization of silver and gold. The change in electrical resistance in the self-hardening lead-mercury and lead-sodium alloys.

University of Göttingen.
That same year she met Robert, they had met on a student overnight trip to Hamburg standing at a train platform Charlotte noticed a unique beautiful suitcase made of pigskin not the usual cardboard cheap suitcases that you would normally come across, She pointed at the suitcase saying “What a beautiful thing, whose is it?” to which Professor Franck replied “Who else but Oppenheimer’s” he shrugged. Charlotte then got on the train back to Göttingen asking where this Oppenheimer was she then sat down beside him clearly interested to know more about the man with the beautiful suitcase, on the train Robert was sitting down reading a novel by the French author André Gide known for (the counterfeiters) Charlotte aware of the author began to speak to Robert about his work, Robert was impressed this woman knew about the work of André Gide he sat with her talking about the author throughout the train ride back to Göttingen, as they arrived to their destination Charlotte complimented his luggage and expressed how she admired how nice the bag was.

Later, speaking to another student about her encounter with Robert, they predicted that Robert would try to give over this suitcase of his to her as Robert was known for giving away his possessions to anyone who admired them, Robert was very smitten with Riefenstahl he tried to court her the best he could but so did Friedrich Georg “fritz" Houtermans a Dutch-Austrian-German 24 year old, A fellow physics student who had already made a name for himself writing a paper on the energy production of stars, Houtermans was known for his quite self-assured attitude being the son of a Dutch banker and would make cocky comments like “When your ancestors were still living in trees, mine were already forging checks!” both Robert and Friedrich received their doctorates that year in 1927.

At the end of Robert’s year at Göttingen University Charlotte came to say her goodbyes at his leaving party,  Robert as the student that conversed with Charlotte earlier that year predicted made a point by giving her his pigskin bag which Riefenstahl kept for the next 3 decades calling it “the Oppenheimer”

Later when Robert was back in the states he had word that miss Riefenstahl had accepted a teaching post at Vassar College, pleased in September he went to the dockside to meet her she was accompanied by fellow physicists Samuel Goudsmit and George Uhlenbeck and Uhlenbeck's new wife, Samuel recalled “We all got the real Oppenheimer treatment—but it was for Charlottes benefit really. He met us in this great chauffeur-driven limousine, and took us downtown to a hotel he had selected in Greenwich Village.”

George Uhlenbeck, Hendrik Kramers and Samuel Goudsmit. circa 1928 at the University of Michigan.
Robert was infatuated with Charlotte taking her around New York and all different places he had been such as art galleries to taking her on dates to the most expensive restaurants, he even went to the extent of introducing her to his parents showing how committed he was to her however although Charlotte admired his attention and care he gave to her she also felt that Robert was emotionally unavailable, When she asked about his past he would often dismiss any attempts to talk about it, She also felt that the Oppenheimer household was too “overprotective” unfortunately their love affair didn’t last and they drifted apart, Later Charlotte would leave her job at Vassar returning home to Göttingen in 1930 and she would marry Roberts former classmate Friedrich Georg Houtermans in August of 1931 with Wolfgang Pauli a Austrian-born Theoretical physicist and Rudolf Peierls a German-born physicist (A future key player in Tube alloys as well as the Manhattan Project) being witnesses to the ceremony, they later went on to have two children Giovanna and Jan.

UNIVERSITIES WHICH PROVIDE MBA IN GERMANY WITHOUT IELTS
Germany is regarded as one of the most economically and politically powerful nations in the world, and it also boasts a rich cultural heritage. Hitler and the Berlin Wall are not it's only claims to fame; the country is also well-known for its beer, football teams, German cuisine, status as a producer of Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Volkswagen, historic landmarks and cathedrals, the Cologne Carnival, Oktoberfest, and a host of other things. In Germany, an MBA programme lasts one to one and a half years and teaches business and financial management skills. In Germany, there are about 130 business schools, 34 of which provide an MBA. The development and improvement of vital abilities for interpreting and applying to enterprises is another area of focus for a Masters in Germany. You can pursue an MBA and study in Germany without giving the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) or any other English language competency test, which is a lesser-known fact.
How can someone study in Germany without taking the IELTS?
Many people are unaware that IELTS is not required to study in Germany. When applying to German universities, applicants must show a Medium of Instruction (MOI) certificate. The university that they previously attended issues the MOI certificate. This certification demonstrates your command of the English language and your ability to read, write, and speak it. You can use this to study for a Masters in Germany without taking the IELTS.
Courses to study in Germany Without an IELTS Exam
For international students looking to study in Germany without IELTS, there are two main kinds of programmes available: German and English. The university courses are divided based on the medium of instruction within the German educational system.
Universities in Germany for Masters without IELTS:
PFH German university
University of Freiburg
University of Bayreuth
Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences
University of Bonn
PFH German University: A private university that emphasizes entrepreneurial thinking is the state-recognized PFH, which has been (re-)accredited by the Science Council.
There are currently courses available on-campus and online:
Management
Technology, 
Healthcare technology
Business law 
Business informatics 
Psychology 
Business psychology 
Stade and Göttingen both have campuses. Germany both have a sizable number of distance learning institutions.
The PFH is Lower Saxony's first private, state-approved university. Its establishment in 1994 was spurred by the desire to establish fresh initiatives in the fields of research and education with a university that was entirely privately funded and that focused a variety of programmes on the actual requirements of the economy. PFH provides a three-semester Master's degree in General Management. It is the best university which provides admission in Masters in Germany for Indian students without IELTS. They provide English taught masters in Germany
University of Bayreuth : A public university originally known as Universität Bayreuth in German established in 1975 and located in Bayreuth, Germany. It doesn't need an IELTS exam for admission in an MBA programme. The University of Bayreuth offers approximately 160 programmes in a variety of fields to international students. The university's international office is well known for providing doctoral research fellowships and scholarships for international students in Germany.
The university's admissions process is regarded as somewhat selective, with an acceptance rate of between 30 and 40%. They conduct their own aptitude test for admission. Their selection procedure includes aptitude test and Personal interview. 
They provide degrees for many courses but some of them require ielts too but MBA is the programme which don't require IELTS score.
Following are the broad faculties offering all postgraduate programs:
Faculty of Life Sciences: Food, Nutrition & Health
Faculty of Languages & Literatures
Faculty of Engineering Science
Faculty of Biology, Chemistry & Earth Sciences
Faculty of Law, Business & Economics
Faculty of Mathematics, Physics & Computer Science
Faculty of Humanities & Social Sciences
Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences: The Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences is a public university of applied sciences in Frankfurt am Main, Germany (formerly known as the Fachhochschule Frankfurt am Main). To apply for the MS in Germany's this university a candidate require to fulfill some  basic requirements:
1. He or she should have a bachelor's degree with 60 % grade.
2. 40 % grade in the aptitude test of university.
The majority of courses are offered in German, however the institution also offers a lot of English-language courses to suit prospective international students. So that international students can also take admission in this MBA program in Germany without IELTS. 
Many students have this aim to study their Masters in Germany and just to help them these universities accept applications from students without IELTS too.

Dr. Venable and the Great Shower of Blood
We begin with a few facts about our chief investigator, lest anyone be tempted to dismiss outright bizarre facts described below. Professor Francis Preston Venable was one of the most accomplished scientists of his day. He excelled in chemistry and held multiple degrees from the University of Virginia and the German universities of Berlin and Göttingen. He authored major scientific books on atoms (1904) and radioactivity (1917), and is credited with having perfected the Bunsen burner. Dr. Venable retired in 1930 after serving fifty years on the University of North Carolina faculty. Venable Hall, one of the main science buildings on the U.N.C. campus, is named for him. 
So this is not the kind of guy who would risk his reputation on a trifling subject. But in 1884, he filed a serious scientific paper on a very strange topic indeed, namely, that a large quantity of blood seemed to have fallen out of the sky onto a small plot had of land in Chatham County, NC, less than fifteen miles from Chapel Hill. The event was first brought to the public’s attention in the March 6, 1884, issue of the Chatham Record newspaper. 
“The wife of Kit Lasater . . . who lives on the farm of Mr. Silas Beckwith in the New Hope Township, states that, about 2 o’clock on Monday the 25th of February . . . a shower of blood fell around her from a sun-bright sky! Many of the neighbors, after hearing of her statement, visited the spot and they all say that the ground-embracing an area about 60 feet in circumference-was covered with splotches of something like blood, and an examination of the trees in the space showed blood on the branches.”
Upon hearing about the strange event, Venable visited the spot himself and did a very detailed analysis of the samples he obtained. His extensive tests revealed the presence of hematine, a component of blood. His conclusion in the Journal of the Elisha Mitchell Scientific Society: 
[t]his leaves little or no reasonable doubt then that the samples examined had blood upon them. The question arises, were they carefully taken; had no animal ever bled on the same ground; had pigs ever been slaughtered in the quarter of the field? etc. As to theories accounting for so singular a material falling from a cloudless sky. I have no plausible ones to offer. It may have been some bird of prey passing over, carrying a bleeding animal, but a good deal of blood must have fallen to cover so large a space. If a hoax has been perpetrated on the people of that neighborhood it has certainly been very clearly done and an object seems to be lacking.”
Similar observations had occurred from time to time, and Venable’s decision to submit his report may have been encouraged by intriguing articles that had appeared many years earlier in other scientific journals. In 1841, the American Journal of Science described a rain of muscle tissue, fat, and blood that landed in a tobacco field near Lebanon, Tennessee. The incident created fear among people who saw biblical portent in it. Fear were once reinforced when an article in the North Carolinian several years later headlined “GREAT FALL OF FLESH & BLOOD, EXTRAORDINARY PHENOMENON IN SAMPSON COUNTY” and described the “astonishing particulars” of a shower of gore that occurred on February 15, 1850, on the property of Thomas Clarkson,  near Clinton, NC. 
The shower fell in a roughly rectangular pattern and covered a zone about thirty feet wide by nearly three hundred yards long. It also included many large pieces of flesh-meat, liver, lungs, and brains-along with gobs of blood. The blood fell in enough quantity to run down the leaves of the trees and splash on the ground like a heavy rain. A lawyer who lived nearby spotted that it came from “a cloud overhead, having a red appearance, like a wind cloud. There was no rain.” He took samples of the fallen flesh materials, which were later confirmed to be putrefied flesh. 
The site of the old Beckwith farm in Chatham County is through to have been along Parker’s Creek, about a mile east of Mount Gilead Church (a few miles northeast of Pittsboro), while the Clarkson farm in Sampson County was thirteen miles southwest of Clinton. -Special thanks to Tom Maxwell

JESSICA ANDREANI, CHERCHEURE AU CEA EN BIOINFORMATIQUE
Tumblr media
Retrouvez la semaine de Jessica ici !
Bonjour à toutes et à tous, je suis Jessica Andreani, ingénieure chercheure CEA à l’institut des sciences du vivant Frédéric-Joliot et à l’institut de biologie intégrative de la cellule (I2BC), sur le campus Paris-Saclay. Mon domaine de recherche est la bioinformatique, c’est-à-dire le développement et l’utilisation de méthodes et d’outils informatiques pour tenter de répondre à des questions d’intérêt biologique.
Plus précisément, je m’intéresse aux interactions entre macromolécules du vivant (protéines et acides nucléiques), à leur structure tridimensionnelle et à leur évolution à travers les espèces. Ces interactions sont fondamentales pour l’accomplissement des fonctions biologiques et lorsqu’elles sont perturbées, les conséquences pour l’organisme peuvent être dramatiques.
Ingénieure de formation, je me suis spécialisée en chimie moléculaire, puis j’ai fait mon stage de Master 2 en chimie théorique à Oxford. Je me suis orientée vers la bioinformatique au moment de mon doctorat car cela me permettait de conserver un aspect théorique et analytique dans mes recherches tout en m’intéressant à des problématiques concrètes d’intérêt biologique. Mon domaine de spécialité est depuis la bioinformatique structurale, c’est-à-dire l’étude des molécules du vivant dans leur détail atomique. Au cours de mon post-doctorat en Allemagne, au Gene Center de Munich puis à l’institut Max Planck de Göttingen, j’ai développé des projets de modélisation statistique pour la bioinformatique structurale, mais aussi d’analyse de données de génomique fonctionnelle. Depuis mon recrutement au CEA il y a cinq ans, une large partie de mon activité de recherche est consacrée au développement de méthodes de prédiction des interactions macromoléculaires. Je cherche également à coupler plus étroitement les données « omiques » générées par les techniques expérimentales actuelles à haut débit avec ces questions de bioinformatique structurale, afin d’enrichir notre compréhension des interactions et notre capacité à les prédire. Je trouve ces sujets de recherche passionnants car l’étude des mécanismes moléculaires qui régissent les interactions dans le vivant est fondamentale pour pouvoir comprendre ces interactions, leurs dysfonctionnements, par exemple dans le cas de pathologies, et comment on peut tenter de les moduler dans un but thérapeutique ou d’ingénierie. Ce que j’apprécie énormément dans mon métier de chercheure, c’est sa diversité. Diversité dans les sujets abordés car mon domaine de recherche est à l’interface entre la biologie, l’informatique, mais aussi la chimie, les mathématiques et la physique. Diversité également dans les activités qui constituent mon métier : écrire des programmes informatiques, réfléchir à des questions biologiques, analyser des données et discuter avec des collaborateurs expérimentateurs, lire et écrire des articles, écouter et donner des séminaires, enseigner, former des doctorant.e.s... C’est tout cela que je souhaite essayer de vous faire partager au cours de cette semaine.

October 29, Göttingen - Rechte Symboliken erkennen und benennen
Ob Schwarze Sonne oder Thor Steinar, Nazi-Hipster oder Nazi-Skinhead, die extreme Rechte verfügt über eine Vielzahl von Symbolen, Marken und Codes, über welche sie ihre Gesinnung für Gleichgesinnte offenbart und sich so gleichzeitig von der restlichen Gesellschaft abgrenzt. Der Vortrag wird die verschiedenen Bezugspunkte extrem rechter Symbolik vorstellen, einordnen und durch Praxisbeispiele aufzeigen, wie sie erkannt werden können. Das Antifaschistische Bildungszentrum und Archiv Göttingen (https://antifaschistisches-archiv.org/das-abag/) kommt und klärt über rechte Symboliken auf. Der Vortrag soll vor allem die vermehrt am Campus und im Göttinger Stadtbild aufgetretene Symbolik der "Identitären Bewegung" beleuchten. Für den Vortrag ist kein Vorwissen notwendig.

Homage to the university city of Göttingen from the view of a student
The biggest differences between a metropolis and a student town that I noticed right away are measurable in numbers: The size, the number of residents and the distances between A and B are quite smaller in Göttingen than in Frankfurt. Göttingen has about 120,000 residents, a quarter of which are students – so quite a bit. Whan I'm strolling through the streets of the old town, I see many young faces. It is particularly nice and convenient that the university camout is scattered all over the city. This way, you are always in the immediate vicinity of the university, but you can in a few minutes retreat to the botancal garden if you need some distance to seminars and exam stress.
That is what I like so much about Göttingen: The city is so small that life happens quasi at one place. The shortest distances, which you have cover in the city are giving you first of all one thing: more spare time, which every student can fill out in a different way. In Frankfurt, it has taken me sometimes an hur with public transportation if I wanted to visit a friend who was living at the other end of the city. Now I need about 15 minuts with the bicycle. The same appiles when I have to switch the campus of if I only want to fall into my bed after a long evening in the city center.
Sometimes I have asked myself whether there is something that I miss about the life in the metropolis in general or Frankfurt in particular. Perhaps the variety of squares and biographies, which you obviously encounter every meter on yout way through the city. But when you are looking more closely, you find all these things in a smaller town, too. Frankfurt offers, in contrast to Göttingen, a huge cultural and culinary variety. But do you really need all these options between 30 different concerts and exhibitions and hundreds of restaurants and cafes? Göttingen has a reasonable cultural landscape; however, it is full of life. In fact, there is somethng going on every day. In March, it is a bit more quiet in the city because many students are visiting thair parents during the semester holidays, or they travel. But that is the great thing: There is just enough going on that you can do something without feeling overwhelmed by all the options. The same applies to student life.
Aren't we all living in bubbles?
Göttingen gives me the opportunity to breathe again, because the the student town is full of students and thus full of people aho don't have to orgenize their everyday life down to the last detail and have to hurry from one appointment to the next one as you see so often in the big cities, but who sometimes have the luxury to take the day as it comes. Even if that is applicable for many students only in exceptional cases or during the semester holidays, life in the smaller city feels overall more relaxed. And you can feel that in many kinds: in traffic, in the general attidute and in the tone in which people communicate.
Of course, it is important for many students – including myself – to have a job parallel to the studies. Many of us are working as waitors, at the university, or in the library to make some money. And that takes time – but strangely enough, I still have the feeling to have more of it at my disposal, after all. Despite many seminars and lectures, I was able to attend a course in the programming language C out of pure interest, and I am learning Ancient Greek and Japanese in addition to my studies – because I am fascinated by the associated cultures. To concentrate on a matter works astonishingly better in Göttingen that in has ever worked n Frankfurt.
From a critical perspective one could say that students live in a student town in an academic bubble through which only little of the surounding world gets through – and that is right to a certain extent. But you can aso ask the counterquestion: Aren't we all living in certain bubbles because our perception is predominantly determined by what happens around us and what we are dealing with? I think that the concern to be disconnected from real life only because you are living in a university town is unsubstantiated.
The people that I have met in Göttingen are quite different – but one thing is common to them: a big interest in life, in their surroundings, in other people, and in expanding their horizon. When I tell here that I took a year longer for my bachelor studies to do internships, to travel and co make experiences for life, I encounter more appreciation for my decision in Göttingen than in Frankfurt.
Less worries
In my view, many students are united by a certain disorientation. We all don't know exactly where our studies – particularly in human sciences – will lead us, but that is actually not so important right now, because we cannot anticipate the future and don't know what will come. Friends and fellow students tell me often what they want to learn, read, visit and experience. In my "Reading Club" we are nor only discussing books, but also politics, but also world affairs, but less about anxiety about the future, carreer prospects, and visions of our lives.
Since I am living in Göttingen I am less concerned about my future carreer. I am learning new, fascinating ideas, texts, words, and sometimes people that show me new possibilities and ways. What will work out in the end will reveal itself in due time. For me, it was in any case the right decision to move to Göttingen.
Depending on which demands you make with regards to your duration and place of study, I think it can by very worthwile to move to a student town. I personally have a much easier time to live in the here and now because I am no longer exposed to the hectic and fast pace of the metropolis, which distracts me from the essentials when a multitude of sensations rush towards me in the same moment. I enjoy to live in a place that enables me to fully concentrate on my studies and everything connected to it.

Meet Gabriel Villamil, molecular biologist
1) What do you do?
I’m a doctoral student studying RNA metabolism and RNA transcription kinetics. Even though we've known for decades that genes in our DNA are transcribed into RNA which are then translated into proteins - the expression of our biology - there is still so much that is not understood!
Transcription is not a simple on-or-off, yes-or-no process. Relative concentrations and the speed at which things happen matter! My job is to combine DNA sequencing with math to understand transcription better, find out what the different parts are for, how much of them are needed, and how quickly things happen!
2) Where do you work?
I work at the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry in Göttingen, Germany. As you can tell from the name, we study three basic sciences here: biology, physics, and chemistry!
3) Tell us about the photos!
[Left:] I spend my time coding on a computer trying to turn complex data into pretty and understandable figures.
[Right:] I am in an international graduate program and every month we celebrate the culture of some of our students. This is a photo from a celebration of the Chinese Spring Festival (we're drinking Tsingtao beer). 4) Tell us about your academic career path so far. 
I went to elementary school at the Community of Learners Foundation, then the Philippine Science High School Main Campus for high school, and then UP Diliman for college, studying Molecular Biology and Biotechnology. I was six years an undergrad, and then spent for four years working at the Philippine Genome Center for a total of ten years in UP!
In 2016, I moved to Göttingen to join the International Max Planck Research School for Molecular Biology. It's an integrated MSc/PhD program. Now, I'm in my 2nd year of PhD.
5) Anything else you’d like to share?
For your young readers: become a scientist! It's not a popular career path in our country, but it can be just as rewarding and sexy as being a medical doctor or lawyer. 
For the parents: encourage your children's interest in science! There is no such thing as "bad at math" or "bad at science". Everyone can be good at both! The only thing that's needed is curiosity, which everyone already has!
