This weeks Rose Cafe with Shiv was very interesting. I do not have much knowledge in the field of science so a lot of the talk did go over my head but the main point was very well communicated. I actually had Shiv as a guest for my Expository Writing course in rose house and you can tell how passionate Shiv is when he talks about his work. He works with organiods which essential are small organs that mimic the makeup and function of our bodily organs. Shiv talked about his place in the BioMed Engineering program for his PhD candidacy. He plans to even go to medical school after his PhD in order to provide patients with the best specialized care in the future. By using organoids he can research was in which the body may respond to different things. In this way new drugs, treatment therapies or cure can be found through this research. Shiv specifically explained that his research is about lymph nodes and how B cells make antibodies. I look forward to the medical successes of Shivs future!
I think it’s so cool that everyone on this campus is making a positive change to society. It’s amazing that we go to a school where can learn about anything that interests us and pursue it! I look forward to Shiv’s contributions to society.
