Post graduate studies

Hi, today I have to talk you about post graduate studies, I'm a little young to think about that but I have to do it.

Like I said in my last blog, I don't have a idea about the post graduate studies that I'll do, but I know that I have to do one. 

The University of Chile has a program in which you can postulate to a master in fourth grade of your undergraduate studies, to start this master in fifth year, simultaneous to your last year in the undergraduate school, and then you have to do one thesis, for both program! I think that is so beneficial, because you save a lot of time. Considering that, I want to do the master of biochemistry of University of Chile, with the specialization "biochemistry of proteins and biotechnology", I think that this master will give me a lot of knowledge in the area of proteins, how they work, their folding, how to purify them, etcetera. 

About my PhD studies, I don't know, I think that it will depend of my interests about certain research. Actually, I'm interested on chronic diseases, cardiovascular diseases, this themes are related with the metabolism, so, at the molecular level, I have to study the metabolic machinery of the cell, like the mitochondria. Considering that, a possible PhD can be the PhD on biomedical sciences of the faculty of medicine, or the PhD in biochemistry of the faculty of chemical sciences and pharmacy, but, like I said, I don't know.

The place of my post graduate studies is even more uncertain, I mean, I want to do the master in this

university, but the place of the PhD is uncertain, maybe here, maybe abroad, I don't know, but I know

that my post graduate studies must be full-time study, because I think that is more efficient.
