Study Notes

Bioremediation in Marinduque

Dr. Nelly Aggangan, a UP Los Baños-based researcher, has developed a new method of bioremediation to restore degraded mining sites in Marinduque.
Bioremediation uses microorganisms to clean up contaminated sites, and is normally employed to address environmental pollution caused by heavy and toxic metals through mining and other metallurgical processes.
The soil in the 32-hectare mined dumpsite in Mogpog, Marinduque was nutrient-depleted, but Dr. Aggangan found that trees such as narra, acacia, and eucalyptus could thrive with the presence of beneficial fungi and bacteria.

Sigmund Freud

Sigmund Freud was an Austrian scientist regarded as the “Father of Psychoanalysis,” which is a study of theories and techniques employed to uncover the unconscious mind.
Freud believed that every impulse, desire, emotions, and memories that are suppressed can be found in the unconscious mind.
He coined the terms "Oedipus complex" and "Electra complex" to describe the relationships between parents and children.

Philippine Science and Technology

President Rodrigo Duterte announced a budget increase for the Department of Science and Technology to provide research and entrepreneurial opportunities.
The Philippine government expressed support for the Philippine Space Technology Program.
The event's theme was "Science for the People," promoting entrepreneurship and reacquainting people with science and technology.

History of Science in the Philippines

During the American period, the Philippines saw the establishment of public schools and support for education and science sectors.
The University of the Philippines was established during this time.
Post-WWII, interest in engineering, medicine, and science-related fields has increased, but a lack of funding and support led to a decline in employment rates.

Scientific Theories and Philosophy

Paul Feyerabend proposed Epistemological Anarchism, which states that there is no scientific method and "anything goes."
John Earman's work, "Testing Scientific Theories," seeks to justify the need to test theories for confirmation.
Scientific Realism is the epistemic view of science, which states that the Universe, with its observed and unobserved concepts, being described by Science is real regardless of how it is represented.

Philippine Development Plan 2017-2022

The plan aims to enable Filipinos to attain a matatag, maginhawa, at panatag na buhay.
