2 peruvian creative minds.

If the minds are creative we don´t distinguish between scientific or artists.

Anthony Atala, is a peruvian, situated in USA, who like many doctors desired to become a surgeon of renown. Already, graduate of Urologist, he decided to gave his title some luster with a stage in a pediatric urologic center annex to the University of Harvard. He desired to develop there a method to impede the urinary reflux -of ureters toward the kidneys-in children. But Harvard where the creation is constant, showed him another setting, where a prepared http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/spanish/science/newsid_1822000/1822002.stm mind like that him found an appropriate niche, understanding that for a problem does not exist one, but several therapeutic options. Later, in the School of Medicine of Wake Forest (2004), with condrocites (cartilaginous cells), eradicated of the cartilag of the nosehttp://www.nytimes.com/2006/07/11/health/11prof.html?_r=1&oref=slogin he created a solid system of urinary ureteral contention, that annulled the backward movement of the urinary flow. Not alone that, for the phased out urinary system : to substitute bladders with cancer, by intestinal segments, he created alternative neobladders, from urotelial cells of the own patient. What was not easy -took him 4 years- to realize that alone cells with enormous regenerative potential (like basal cells of the bladder), were the better for to be cultivated in extensive, during 6 weeks, in petri chambers. From bladders to structured muscles, esophagi, windpipes, penises, uteruses, alone there was that to take a step. To build esophagi, Atala places in the interior of a structure done backup of biopolimer selfdegradables, a mass of gastrointestinal cells and abroad another of muscular cells. If the cancer, leaves little available tissue, there is not problem, by means of transplant of cell nuclei he expects to generate so much tissue as the lacking. Their optimism, has done him to say that if salamanders can regenerate their queue, the humans will also do the same thing with their lacking members. Atala has just received 1 million dollars of the Department of American Defense, to build legs and arms lost. Atala has published 6 books, 200 articles and received the American medals Christopher Colon and of the Treatment Lider 2002. Excellent Anthony, but try to place inside your priorities the elaboration to natural (employing dental germinative centers), of human teeth.

Another case is that of Pedro Suarez Vértiz (1971-), graduate in Sciences of the Communication in the University of Lima and singer and composer of pop music, by vocation. His enormous talent overturned to the musical composition (pop, rock with Andean breaths), has permitted him to go placing hit after hit along the years, each one of better quality than the previous one. Each new of his LP, remains 6 months in the national lists in positions of vanguard and, ultimately has begun to appear with force in the Latin-American hit parade. For the time being he is preparing to carry out a long-range promotional world tour. All their themes are own, original and very senses. We like : Lo olvidé -I forgot it- (of mistic and religious orientation), Cuando pienses en volver -When you think about returning- (hymn to the immigrants) and his recent emission : Como las rosas -As the roses- (loving, erotic), a hit of more well encouraging, a delight, not complaining, refreshing, agile, smooth letter. Although for the time being Pedro, does not reach still the intensity of the argentinian Andrés Calamaro, his growth is continuous. Nevertheless, I perceive that to Pedro, something lacks him. Perhaps to his abundant musical fund over and above electric guitars, lack him to add acoustics guitars, trumpets and accordions, to expand the base and musical quality. For the time being, the letter of his songs and his musical swing is excellent.

2 mentes peruanas, creadoras.

Si las mentes son creativas, no distinguimos entre artistas o cientificos. Anthony Atala, es un peruano, radicado en USA, que al igual que muchos médicos ansiaba convertirse en un cirujano de renombre. Ya, graduado de Urólogo, decidió sacarle lustre a su titulo con una estadia en un Centro urológico pediátrico anexo a la Universidad de Harvard. Ansiaba desarrollar alli un método que impidiese el reflujo urinario -de uréteres hacia los riñones-en niños. Pero Harvard donde la creación es constante, le mostraria otro escenario, donde una mente preparada como la suya encontraria un nicho apropiado, comprendiendo que para un problema no existe una, sino varias opciones terapéuticas. En la Escuela de Medicina de Wake Forest (2004), con condrocitos (celulas cartilaginosas), extirpados del cartilago de la nariz creó un sólido sistema de contención urinaria ureteral, que anuló el retroceso del flujo urinario. No solo eso, para el desfasado sistema de sustituir vejigas urinarias con cáncer, por segmentos intestinales, creó alternativamente neovejigas, a partir de células uroteliales del propio paciente. Lo que no fué fácil -le tomó 4 años- darse cuenta de que solo células con enorme potencial regenerativo (basales de la vejiga), eran las mejores para ser cultivadas in extenso, durante 6 semanas, en cámaras petri. De vejigas a estructurar músculos, esófagos, tráqueas, penes, úteros, solo hubo que dar un paso. Para construir esófagos, Atala coloca al interior de una estructura de soporte hecha de biopolimeros degradables, una masa de células gastrointestinales y en el exterior otra de células musculares. Si el cáncer, deja poco tejido disponible, no hay problema, mediante trasplante de núcleos celulares espera generar tanto tejido como el faltante. Su optimismo, le ha hecho decir que si las salamandras pueden regenerar su cola, los humanos también harán lo mismo con sus miembros faltantes. Atala acaba de recibir 1 millón de dólares del Ministerio de Defensa americano, para construir piernas y brazos perdidos. Atala ha publicado 6 libros, mas de 200 articulos y recibido las medallas Cristóbal Colon y del Tratamiento Lider 2002, americanos. Excelente Anthony, pero seria bueno que colocaras dentro de tus prioridades la elaboración al natural (empleando centros germinativos dentales), de dientes humanos.

Otro caso http://pedrosuarez-vertiz.com/ es el de Pedro Suarez Vértiz (1971-), graduado en Ciencias de la Comunicación en la Universidad de Lima y cantante y compositor de música pop, por vocación. Su enorme talento volcado a la composición musical (pop, rock con hálitos andinos), le ha permitido ir colocando hit trás hit a lo largo de los años, cada uno de mejor calidad que el anterior. Cada disco suyo nuevo permanece 6 meses en las listas nacionales en puestos de vanguardia y, últimamente ha empezado a aparecer con fuerza en el hit parade latinoamericano. De momento se prepara para realizar una gira mundial promocional de largo alcance. Todos sus temas son propios, originales y muy sentidos. A nosotros nos gustaron : Lo olvidé, (de orientación mistico, religiosa), Cuando pienses en volver (himno a los inmigrantes) y la delicia de reciente emisión :Como las rosas (amorosa, erótica), un hit de letra suave, ágil, refrescante, no quejosa, más bien esperanzadora. Aunque de momento Pedro, no alcanza todavía http://www.calamaro.com/indexsalmon.htm la intensidad del argentino Andrés Calamaro, su crecimiento es continuo. No obstante, percibo que a Pedro, le falta algo. Quizás a su fondo musical nutrido en exceso de guitarras eléctricas, le falte añadirle guitarras acústicas, trompetas y acordeones, para ampliar la base y calidad musical. También le falta un poco de calle. De momento, la letra de sus canciones y su swing musical es excelente.
