Tutorial on Chemical Bonds – Video

Tutorial on Chemical Bonds
http://www.ScienceTutorOnline.com This week I #39;m doing a tutorial on chemical bonds, and really on the importance of valence electrons. Covalent bonds and ionic bonds are important because they determine the properties of many compounds. Hydrogen bonds play a role in the structure and function of DNA, as well as the ability for many proteins to bind with receptors. There #39;s a little bit in here about electronegativity and the redox reactions because these concepts are important for biochemistry, and I mention the Van der Waals effect because it #39;s just that cool. I do a new science tutor video every Monday night, in case you want to subscribe. Or you can get a lot of goodies (including help on your science homework, of course), by going to my website at http If you #39;re not already comfortable with electron shells and orbitals, I suggest you watch another video first, which you can find at this link: sciencetutoronline.com

RHODES UNIVERSITY: Biotechnology unit ‘surprises with its skills’

Posted on by

THE danger for South Africa is that we are in competition with everyone in the world of biotechnology, says Janice Limson, head of Rhodes Universitys biotechnology unit. "But the thing with innovation is that a hit can come from anywhere."

The university has a school of biochemistry, microbiology and biotechnology, and it has impressive credentials: "Rhodes was the home of biotechnology in South Africa, with the first postgraduate biotechnology (course) in the country."

However, the university "needs to create an enabling space to move into industry There is a new generation of academics who want to innovate and do work that can make an impact Its pointless if we dont engage in technology transfer and showcase biotechnology."

Her research focuses on sensors. "We create a special sensing solution for specific targets: an electrochemical sensor using biological recognition agents, such as antibodies and enzymes."

Glucose tests are a form of biosensor, used by patients to check their blood-sugar levels. "Biomedical sensors is a multibillion-dollar industry," she says.

Her group is working on breast cancer detectors. "(You) can send (the sensor solution) into the body and label the (cancer cells) in some way that can be targeted and couple that with a drug. The sensor goes to the target and then delivers a drug at the same time," Dr Limson says.

She notes that developing biomedical technologies is difficult without a medical school. "But there is scope for fundamental research which can be readily applied," she says.

Tebello Nyokong, director of the Nanotechnology Innovation Centre hosted by the university, was once Dr Limsons PhD supervisor. She is not concerned that her centre is so far from the nearest medical school: "We are not dealing with patients, so it is okay with me. The government does not allow researchers to touch patients."

Prof Nyokong one of the top scientists in South Africa and winner of the 2009 LOreal-Unesco award for women in science is working on a cancer treatment which is activated by light.

She focuses on skin cancer: "You apply the drug to the skin, and you just need sunlight," she says, adding that it is important to get through all the red tape as quickly as possible because HIV/AIDS "results in a lot of people dying from skin cancer".

Summer Opportunity for Students

Posted on by

This summer how would you like to...

· Travel to Africa?

· Teach in Rural Villages?

· Learn Swahili?

Well, instead of sitting in another typical summer school course, updating your Facebook status, how would you like to travel to another country and possibly earn college credits for teaching about HIV/AIDS in AFRICA? Well, its possible! Support For International Change is looking for motivated and dedicated students who have an interest in taking their education and spreading their knowledge to rural villages in Eastern Africa. SIC offers structured 8 and 12 week volunteer programs open to students and recent alumni of participating schools, including The University of Arizona.

Support for International Change (SIC) focuses on teaching community members and school children how to protect themselves from HIV and how to care for those who are already infected by AIDS. Our volunteer satisfaction ratings have consistently been very high, and we are committed to further improving our programs and we would like you to be our next group of volunteers for Summer 2012!!!

Each program begins with an intensive, expert-led orientation. A week into orientation, volunteers move into a homestay with a host Tanzanian family. After orientation, your primary work as a volunteer will be to run an HIV awareness campaign within your community. The majority of your time will be spent teaching, lesson planning, and training peer educators, and you will also be involved in community assessment work within your village. In addition to these responsibilities, we urge volunteers to take the lead on other projects related to our work.

We believe that education is essential in slowing the spread of HIV/AIDS in northern Tanzania. Each year, student volunteers bring new energy and talents to our work!!!
