Well, I don't have anything specific to write here, I just have some time before my experiment will be ready in incubator :) And finally cancer cells that I'm working with will be in proper state :)
Well, yes, I'm working in the lab that is dealing with NO effect on breast cancer cells. I think that when you will hear someone saying free radical first thing that will appear in your mind - oh, they are harmful for skin and other organs (at least I thought like that at the beginning, probably too much TV advertisement is in my mind :))) ) So, it is one side of the coin and from another side lies something not discovered or even never thought about :) It is positive effect of NO, it can protect cells. So, in this lab we want to find out how NO is working inside of our body, maybe it will have high efficacy against cancer and it will be m=new revolutionary treatment of it or maybe simply it have such a big protective effect that it can positively influence normal, non cancer cells in our organism and we can be protected from cancer? Who knows? That's why we are here :) We want to know the truth :))))
My work here was quite simple at the beginning - maintaining cells alive :) It was fun, working with cool stuff, like different pippets, wearing gloves, see, it's fun :))) And then I started to be even more important member in the lab, I ran my own first half practical half scientific experiment.
Well, I though that I totally screw it up. I don't know why. Just like that, only :) Because I thought that my hands are growing not for proper place to make everything properly and according to all standards, well you know all this crap :)
So, I though that I was just simply practicing how to do all that experiment stuff :)
So, I didn't care that much about results, I wanted just to learn how to do that :)
Well, after finishing of the experiment I was happy that finally this disaster finished, so my mentor in lab - Sumit is saying to me next morning - Professor Thomas was happy with your results! I said: "Really? What did he say about it?" He: "Well, nothing special, just like that" I: "Ok, cool"
In the evening, I'm working in the lab and my professor is coming and saying to me: "Well girl, you are lucky one!" I;"Why? What happened?" He: "You just coming to this lab and already becoming famous!" I said: "Ok, it is great, but at least tell me how did it happen?" He: " See, this is a paper about protein that you were working with, so in 2008 there was a hypothesis, that this protein might be effected by NO and with your experiment you proved it!"
Guys, can you imagine me, staying in front of the professor with my mouth opened and filling that I'm a part of something BIG, really BIG, that is called SCIENCE!!!!!
And at that moment damn motivation came to me! Really, I don't know even how to describe that feeling, it is like a passion, that is coming from inside.
No, it is totally fine for me to stay in the lab for 10 hours, working like a slave here, with lot's of patience, lot's of motivation and desire to do something outstanding, on the other hand I still have lot's of studying, lot's of it, but I'm happy, I know that I can do that with persistent work in this direction.
So, now I'm still seating in my lab, waiting 5 more minutes and starting DOING BIG :)
Hugs :)
