My favorite place

Hi, today I'm going to talk about my favorite place, this is “Zona lacustre de la Araucanía”, a place that includes lakes, volcanos, hot springs and national parks. Due to I’m from “Región de la Araucanía” I have visited this place since I was very young so I can’t remember when was my first time, but maybe it could have been when my grandparents were going to sell potatoes and take me with them lol. I think it is also my family’s favorite place because we go on every winter and summer vacation.   My first memory is when I went on a trip with my classmates to the “Volcán Villarrica” and then we ate at a restaurant in Pucon. I really like this place because it has lots of landscape diversity, because of the variety of its flora and fauna. This is why its attractions can be enjoyed in any season of the year. A funny story that I remember of that place is when it was snowing while we were going back to my house and I thought that as we got back just then, we would take the snow c...

Hi, today I’m going to talk about a subject that I like a lot, this is “destrezas y autocuidado para el ejercicio profesional”. I like it a lot because in this I could know about dentistry in a more practical way. Although we don’t work with patients, we still learn to develop our psycho-motor skills through simulated context. Also we learn about promote health, prevent, diagnose and solve bucco-maxillofacial diseases prevalent in the population. All the above is just an introduction to the subject that we’ll have on this major, but somehow, it helps us to know if this really we like.   This subject has two parts, one taught in the first semester and another in the second one. I liked more “destrezas II” (as we prefer to call it) than “destrezas I” because “destrezas II” is more practical than “destrezas I”, we’re taught to do things like fillings or restorations in dental pieces. A thing that I didn’t like were the practical evaluations because when taking place the te...

Hi guys, today I'm going to talk about a website that this mayor has made me visit a lot. This is called PubMed, which is a search engine for free access to the MEDLINE database of citations and abstracts of biomedical research articles. Offered by the U.S National Library of Medicine as part of Entrez. MEDLINE has around 4800 journals published in the United States and in more than 70 countries around the world from 1966 to the present. Although it isn't an exclusively dental site, it has helped me a lot for the scientific work I had to do at the University. In addition, in the faculty there are subjects such as "evidence-based dentistry" and "Information Technologies & Computer Resources", in which they teach us to use this type of database. I like it and I consider it very useful because it has several tools to filter information and obtain more specific results in our scientific searches. For example, PubMed uses MeSH terms (Medical Subject ...
