Why do we experience Déjà Vu ? 😲

You walk into a room and see someone talking.... And then it hits you, you have experienced this moment before! I am sure that allot of us have been in such a situation. However, there is a scientific explanation for this too!  Many scientists believe that this is some sort of a short circuit or a malfunction in our brain. Theory #1: There are many theories surrounding this phenomenon. The first one revolves around the concept of familiarity. The fact that the brain might confuse it with something that we are familiar with instead of something that we remember distinctly. Theory # 2: 🔬 The other theory is about delay processing in the brain! The fact that the brain might process the signal twice, hence making us feel like we have seen or experienced the situation before. Overall, the cause of  Déjà Vu is still disputed upon. With many scientific theories trying to back it up, it is still something that science needs to completely decode. Anyways that's all for today! Com...

 Academic Glow up!! 💙(Part 1):

Success occurs to those who work hard for it. You have often heard of working hard as a crucial part of your success but what if I tell you that is half of the story or less than half of the story. Sure, working hard is essential but not at the cost of your physical and mental health and surely, I have too; strived to find the balance between my studies and Myself. Therefore, I am dividing this Academic Glow up Series into a plethora of parts to make it easier for you to incorporate it in your life.
Alongside of this series I would link down every website, I name.

Motivational Books📑:

Whether you believe it or not... Motivation is very necessary. I think it is more essential to find yourself mentally at the right place then to just start studying. Sure, do this side by side. Take out five minutes each day to read something good and motivational... cause why not. I could list some books that I've read which have served as wonderful sources of inspiration and motivation.

Here's the list:
1) The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy
2) The Atomic Habits by James Clear
Of course, there are others as well, which I will list on the front page of my blog. Many of them have their own websites and newsletters to which you can subscribe. You simply need to search for the word "motivation" or look up motivational websites that you can read online. If you still don't find the result you need, comment and I will find some reliable websites for you to see.

Journalling📕:

Step 2 to this journey is to identify your strengths and weaknesses. What better way is there to do this then to record your daily routine. This helps you to have a firm grasp over what you do in a day. You can even create a journal on the most basic platforms like: One Note from Microsoft.
For example, this is a template for how I write mine.



That's all for today. See you later!!!👍

Alzheimer´s Disease Simplified

   What is Alzheimer´s Disease ? A disease associated with the brain that causes memory loss and changes in behavior / thinking of an individual. What causes the disease? -  Two harmful proteins known as amyloid  plaques and tau tangles builds up in the brain adversely, affecting the neurons in the brain(neurons are specialized cells in the brain that help in communication, thinking , remembering and learning). - The probability of a person being affected by the disease increases with age, alongside other risk factors like: genes or even a persons lifestyle.  What are some symptoms ? - Forgetting recent events or familiar names - Finding it hard to do every day tasks - Changes in mood or behavior  - Getting lost in familiar places  Although there is no concrete cure available there are many treatments that can slow down it´s effect. An example of which is "Cholinesterase Inhibitors", essentially they prevent breakdown of a chemical known as acetyl...

Can Algae be used as a biofuel?

   In a  world  that's continuously  evolving , one of the most  prominent   issues  that's  getting  increasingly  pivotal  for the  world  to solve  is fossil fuels depletion . Although, we've  learned  about the  climate   extremity  in  detail  when young , the  world  seems to  turn  a blind   eye  to the  issue at the  moment. Numerous  renewable methods  like solar, wind and wave  energy   are  being   used  due to their sustainability   benefits . S till , these methods  themselves might  be   too  expensive  or  occasionally ,  have  environmental  consequences . T hus , today  I  bring  to you another  strong   contender  in this  race:   ALGAE What are Algae??? - Algae are a  group  of ...

Protein Folding

  Why does the shape of a protein matter? -  To build a brick building you need all bricks to complement each other .....to scaffold upon each other to make a strong structure. Just like that amino acids, which are the small bricks that make protein need to arrange in a certain manner to make certain proteins. How does protein folding occur?😮 As mentioned above proteins are made when amino acids are arranged in a certain manner in long chains. These chains -ofcourse have to fold to make up a protein shapes. This happens spontaneously and due to repulsion between amino acids and watery environments in the cells. Cells help the protein to fold with the help of chaperone proteins ( chaperone of course after the drivers of the process). These proteins help to prevent misfolding . Why does it even matter?🧐 The type of shape that the protein has determines its functions. - It can act as an enzyme. - It build up hair or nails . - It can be used to transport oxygen in the blood thro...
