Ernst Ruska....the great inventor

The person that i'm going to write about is Ernst Ruska,the inventor of electron microscope.He is a German physicist,electrical engineer, and Nobel Prize winner for the design of the first electron microscope.
Electron Microscope is a microscope that uses electrons instead of visible light to produce highly magnified images of objects.This enable the scientists to use electron microscopes in many different fields of research like medicine,Chemistry,Biology and Physics.Electron microscopes enable us to see very small particles and atoms.Its resolving power and magnification power are factors that contributed to the high tech electron microscope.
Born in Heidelberg, Ernst August Friedrich Ruska earned an engineering degree from the University of Berlin in 1931 and a Ph.D. degree in 1933.In 1937 Ruska accepted a research position at Siemens-Reiniger-Werke. He remained there until 1955, when he became director of the Institute for Electron Microscopy of the Fritz Haber Institute. Concurrently, Ruska served at the institute and as professor at the Technical University of Berlin, from 1957 until his retirement in 1972.
I feel that he has contributed greatly to the society we are all living in today.Without him,there would not be electron microscope.Electron microscopes allow us to have a better understanding on the nano cells and how our organelles work.This allow the scientists and doctors to implement new medicine and cure for different diseases.Many different new medicines have been invented and diseases that were once consider deadly have been cured by these new medicines.
Hence,i feel that Ernst Ruska is a great physicist who have contributed greatly to the society.

About myself

My name is Joanne and i'm turning 18 this year.I'm from Malaysia and i came to Singapore at the age of thirteen.Being the third child of the family,i have two elder sister and one younger sister.Since young,our parents have showered with love and warmth.
I came from Orchid Park Secondary School.I stayed in Yishun with my younger sister as my parents are working in Malaysia.My elderst sister,24,worked as a banker and she stays in Clementi.As for my second elder sister,she helps my father to run his business in Malaysia.
Before i came to Singapore,i have stayed in Philippine for two years.Due to the nature of my father's work,our family have been travelling to different parts of Asia.
Pink and purple are my favourite colours.My favourite past time are listening to music and watching dvds.Since young,i have a passion for fashion designing but unfortunately,i do not have the opportunity to master the skill thoroughly.I hope to go NUS to further my study after my A'level.The course that i'm going to study is medicine.My dream is to open a pharmacy of my own and be a successful pharmist,as well as an entrepreneur.
During my two years in aj,i hope to do well academically and broaden my knowledge.Not only that,i hope to make lots of friends in aj and take part actively in my cca.
