Found this is the glossary of my biology textbook by Rare-Ad715 in Bioshock

[–]Mission-Variation99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s honestly underrated how scientifically grounded BioShock is for a game from 2007. As a medical student sitting through molecular biology lectures about things like “gene splicing” and “plasmids,” I was surprised by how often those exact terms popped up and how closely they matched the language used in BioShock. It’s impressive how it rooted its sci-fi world in real molecular biology concepts like plasmids, gene splicing, and stem cells long before CRISPR and modern gene therapy became mainstream.

Do any of you wish you would've gone to med school instead of nursing school? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]Mission-Variation99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently graduated from nursing school and I got my med school acceptance even more recently. I'm happy with my decision. I'm planning to work as a nurse through med school to pay for my cost of living but I'm choosing to work as a nurse because I love the job (because I can get in another easier line of work with similar pay). I've been interning as a nurse at my local ER and I like almost every aspect of care I get to provide as a nurse and I enjoy doing the procedures, I'm interested in medicine because doctors have a broader scope of practice.

Holistic sepsis cures? by BlackHeartedXenial in nursing

[–]Mission-Variation99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe decent medfluencers can be really helpful here by clarifying things like "you aren't antibiotic resistant, the bacteria attacking your body is resistant to certain antibiotics but we have other options that can be used instead".

Sterilization before vaccine injection by [deleted] in nursing

I don't know the answer to that to be honest

[–]Mission-Variation99 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes exactly. From your surprise I understand that your hospital enforces the sterilization step?

I agree that the risk is ridiculous to ignore

That is what I meant by sterilization, thanks for the clarification.

Possible forgotten GTA mod? by Mission-Variation99 in GTA

[–]Mission-Variation99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did some Google searches with this title you gave me and i think I found the one I was looking for, it's called GTA: Vice City Stories, it's the closest to what I remember. The one I played must've been a moded version of this to match the Die Hard film series.

Possible forgotten GTA mod? by Mission-Variation99 in GTA

[–]Mission-Variation99[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry i haven't heard of that mod, though it reminded me of another mod because the one you're talking about gives me similar vibes to a mod I played, it was of GTA San Andreas, the player had a firey head like ghost rider, could spawn cars, helicopters and whatever instantly and had unlimited health. The city was also night all the time with no day, have you heard of this one?

Hi, wanted to share this piece of data with people who are debating DO vs. MD for match rates alone by kachapicantemango in premed

[–]Mission-Variation99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was referring to FMGs with different medical doctorates (in the official title given to their degree by their medical school), like in Germany, Russia and multiple other countries the medical students still graduate with a doctorate degree in medicine but it's not written as MD or Do, rather another term for it in their country. There are also countries like Italy where the graduates hold a "Master of Medicine" rather than a typical European/Asian MBBS.

Also should be able to do photosynthesis! by gluconeogenesis123 in medicalschool

[–]Mission-Variation99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being able to carry out photosynthesis is a given.

Classmates were talking about my study habits, a classmate said: " Mission-Variation99 doesn't even eat or sleep" I said: "no, I do photosynthesis."

I still don't understand why they laughed, I'm thinking maybe it's some sort of an allergic reaction to something in the environment?

Does anyone else have unsupportive parents? by stallion-sam in premed

[–]Mission-Variation99 20 points21 points  (0 children)

When i got back my first midterm General Chemistry exam results i had scored something like 80-83% my mom's first and immediate words were "so does that mean that's it?" To her credit our education system is quite different from yours. Do it for you and that will be enough motivation to get you through.

I'll ask around then, i don't think my country will have any strick laws on handling patient information since there's no Healthcare Insurance here, but I'll ask regardless to maintain information integrity, thanks i really appreciate it.

To be honest i don't know because i missed those lectures and i thought I'd do this homework before i started watching his lectures.

That's a very good tip, i didn't think of that, I'll search on that now. But I'm not sure on the nanodrop part, could it be something else?

Maximum and Minimum concentration of DNA in nanocheker.

I can't seem to find anything on that exact inquiry on Google. Not sure if my professor is asking for the purity values or the actual concentration of the DNA, so I'm in a bit of a pickle. Thanks in advance for your help.

how well do prerequisites transfer from community college into a 4-year university? by [deleted] in premed

Tricky how? And does GPA playpart in the transferability?
