I study Chemistry of the Faculty of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering of Babes-Bolyai University of Cluj-Napoca. When I will finish the university I want to became a chemistry teacher. My hobbies are: reading, listening to music, watching television. The hobby which I have is to read books. I like very much to read books of adventure. Books offer me the possibility to find new things which I don't know. The book helps to develop the human's intelligence. If you read a book about animals you can learn very much informations about them. Every day I read texts for faculty. In the evening when I go to bed I take a novel and I read a few pages from it. In my life music has a very important rol. I like to listen good music. When I have to learn for faculty I can not listen music because I must learn for exams. Music disturbe my attention from learning. When I finish learning I listen music at the computer and I start to search the informations for faculty. The music gives me the possibility to relax when I am stressed. I like very much watching football, basketball, swimming and lawn tennis. My favourite sportsperson is Bogdan Lobont. I like him for his seriousness, modesty and commitment. He is determined to do his best for the victory of the national team. I have a lot of hobbies, but I never forget my duties.

[|Ethical, Legal & Social Implications of Genetic Knowledge] The scientists believed that they are able to transform healthcare by finding Human Genome Projects, creating a programme to explore the Ethical, Legal and Social Implications of a new genetic knowledge and creating new medicines. Their scope is to anticipate problems with solutions and to benefit everyone by genetic resources.

[|One for the Other] Vincent, the first child of Anna and Carlos, suffers from a rare form of cancer. Chemotherapy should be an option, but doctors do not guarantee for this mode of treatment. Another option is bone marrow transplantation. This means killing diseased cells and replacing them with healthy cells from another person. If the transplant is successful, Vincent will cure cancer. Vincent tissue type is very rare and need not find it anywhere. Doctors say that if they had a child, and the cells are compatible with Vincent's, then they could make bone marrow transplants using umbilical cord blood. Anna and Carlos have a second child, whom he called Thomas. At birth, doctors collect umbilical cord blood transplant to use for Vincent. The tissue is compatible with the Thomas Vincent. Doctors do not guarantee for the transplant and that Vincent would still need the tissue to Thomas later in life. This requires more invasive procedures such as removal of bone marrow, organ donation and kidney transplantation.

While nearly all of us are born with the ability to hear, the ability to listen does not necessarily come to us naturally. Listening is a skill that must be practiced in order to be developed, as it requires concentration and determination. For those who can develop the art of listening, it can lead to the ability to be a strong communicator.

This picture was made probably with the occasion of a birthday dear members. The man in the picture, the father of the two children, seems most likely a bank clerk. In his right, there is his wife dressed as the husband with good taste and decent. It seems more like a teacher, but can also be a housewife. The man and woman have two children the boy, more than 7 years and the 3 years old daughter. The boy is the father approached, leaning on his shoulder or hands, his head was bowed slightly to him. He is wearing a black and white striped shirt. The girl is the youngest member of the family and she seems amazed by the camera. The smile of the mother denotes a fulfilling family, away from the care of tomorrow.
