Fates: Bio196 JM Undergrad Seminar

The stars have been mapped ✨, the cards fanned out 🎴🃏, and now the brightest have shed light in the night sky while the most vibrant have emerged from the deck. Are you ready to meet the fateful few who shone out above the rest?

From FATES: Bio196 JM Undergraduate Seminar and our hard-working adviser, we congratulate the stellar winners of 𝑩𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝑺𝒑𝒆𝒂𝒌𝒆𝒓, 𝑩𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝑭𝒂𝒄𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒂𝒕𝒐𝒓, and 𝑩𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝑹𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒐𝒓. Winners were chosen from a combined evaluation of our adviser Prof. Jeffrey Mancera, an external jury, and the voting results.

A new dawn arises as another semester rolls in 🌅, just in time for all of us to take that first step toward our chosen fate. We've said it before and we'll say it again. One last time. This has been FATES: Bio 196 JM Undergraduate Seminar, officially closing stall. May our paths cross again, curious soul ✨.

Missed us? 😌

What better way to truly fold the deck at the end of our journey than to lift the most vibrant tarots 🎴among the spread and point the brightest stars 🌠 in the fateful sky.

So 📣 come one, come all, for one night only, we present the awe-inspiring nominees who went beyond the borders of the four corners of a card. These individuals forged their own paths to seal their fate as the BEST speakers, facilitators, and reactors of our series of seminars. Vote for who you think stood above the rest and evaluate how your fellow students, co-heads, and instructor performed in the link below!

Every star twinkles in the pitch black night, but it's the brightest ones who come closest to having their light seen by the naked eye 🌟

The last card has been pulled 🎴, the last fortune given out 🔮. It's been an honor consulting and divining with all you curious souls, but alas the shroud must now be pulled down once again at the end of our journey.

𝑭𝑨𝑻𝑬𝑺: 𝑫𝒆𝒇𝒊𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒍𝒊𝒇𝒆, 𝑫𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒑𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑺𝒄𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆, 𝑫𝒊𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑻𝒐𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒓𝒐𝒘 enthusiastically thanks and congratulates all the speakers, facilitators, reactors, faculty, and attendees who helped make our series of seminars a success. With every tarot read and talk accomplished our future grew more divine, and no one but ourselves can now determine the fate that awaits us ahead.

Before we pack up, we would like to send our congratulations to our nominees for Best Presenter, Best Facilitator, and Best Reactor. An official voting form will be sent by our esteemed adviser, Prof. Jef Mancera, to determine the winners for each.

The cards are now in your hands. Read them right but keep your belief sparse, for it will not be the cards who will determine the roads you take. It is through your own hands that your fate will be made true.

This has been FATES: Bio 196 JM Undergraduate Seminar, officially closing stall. May our paths cross again, curious soul ✨.

Christmas day is one snooze away 🎄, and soon the new year will come bringing new fortunes and fates.

The year will end having presented to us a plethora of scientific and medical breakthroughs -- some introduced by 𝑭𝑨𝑻𝑬𝑺: 𝑴𝒊𝒄𝒓𝒐𝒃𝒊𝒂𝒍 𝑻𝒆𝒄𝒉𝒏𝒊𝒒𝒖𝒆𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑨𝒅𝒗𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒔 🔬🧪. Surely plenty more wonders await us in the future, but for now, we sincerely thank those who accompanied us through our journey for knowledge.

A new page 📖 will be turned and another set of tarots will be fanned out. Carry what you've learned, curious soul, and charge towards the path of your fate.

You are what fate dictates, and you are what you consume -- food 🥗, water 💧, and everything microscopic 🧫 in between. A bleek fortune awaits those who let the unwanted fester unseen 🔎

Thankfully we have the knowledge from the concluded 𝑭𝑨𝑻𝑬𝑺: 𝑭𝒐𝒐𝒅𝒃𝒐𝒓𝒏𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑾𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒃𝒐𝒓𝒏𝒆 𝑷𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒐𝒈𝒆𝒏𝒔 🥗💧 to ensure a safe and healthy vessel as well as a more careful tomorrow. Our never-ending gratitude extends to our ever-supportive audience.

You are what fate dictates, and you are what you consume -- but you can steer your own destiny and you can certainly watch what you eat. With caution, may your own feet guide you to where your mind sees you to be.

Brr... it's getting chillier ❄️ as the holidays drag on. Don't let your future stay frozen in its spot, and absolutely do not let your plants 🪴- ah, we mean plans grow cold!

All our plantitos and plantitas went home with smiles on their faces after 𝑭𝑨𝑻𝑬𝑺: 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝑺𝒄𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆 🌸🌲! We extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who set aside some time and participated in the event.

May tomorrow bring forth new fortunes as bountiful as the leaves on trees 🍃 and as memorable as our seminars here in FATES. Until the next!

Tarots can predict the unpredictable, much like science can fix the supposedly unfixable.

𝑭𝑨𝑻𝑬𝑺: 𝑩𝒊𝒐𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 ♻️ has finished its course, but we have not finished trekking towards scientific breakthroughs, and we certainly are not finished reminiscing what's gone and done! Thank you to everyone who took our hand and joined us!

May the hands of fate and the threads of knowledge accompany you in these holidays!

A bit tardy, yes, but no amount of passed time 🕰️ will ever change just how far local and ethnic medicine has come, and not a tarot exists to ever deter how much farther there is to go.

It's been a while since 𝑭𝑨𝑻𝑬𝑺: 𝑬𝒕𝒉𝒏𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒄𝒊𝒏𝒆 🌿⚕️, and yet the stories of our people, our land, and our science will forever echo through our land and possibly beyond. A big 𝙨𝙖𝙡𝙖𝙢𝙖𝙩 to everyone who chose to spend their time with us.

More photos are on the way so keep yourselves updated this Christmas season. Sa pagtaob ng baraha, may darating na panibagong umaga 🌄.

Let us read the lines of your palm 🫴, interpret the faces of your tarots 🎴, mutter a chant 🗣️, or look through the crystal ball 🔮. There is no one way to know your future, much like there is no one way to study the life unseen 🧫.

We're pulling the last cards before we pull down the shroud once more. For one last time, curious soul, won't you spend your time with us and walk towards the path of your fate?

Something's amiss in the air... or is it something in the water 💧? Maybe our food 🥗? It doesn't take a third eye 👁️ or sixth sense to detect parasites, noroviruses, or 𝘎𝘪𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘪𝘢; just a scientist 🧑‍🔬, a lab 🧫, and pathogenic knowledge 🧠.

Watch what you put in your mouth and come learn more with 𝑭𝒐𝒐𝒅𝒃𝒐𝒓𝒏𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑾𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒃𝒐𝒓𝒏𝒆 𝑷𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒐𝒈𝒆𝒏𝒔 💧🥗 this 𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟰, 𝟵 𝗔𝗠, in the College of Arts and Sciences' 𝗥𝗛 𝟮𝟭𝟮! Register for this seminar by scanning the QR codes or clicking the following link:

As we near the closing of the shroud on our scientific divination, come, rest your weary soul and take our hand. Let us bring you to your fate.

Another moon has passed 🌑, its light long gone, but the knowledge it left behind will never fade from the audience's minds

As quickly as the changing tides 🌊 and shuffling tarots, the days since 𝑭𝑨𝑻𝑬𝑺: 𝑬𝒏𝒗𝒊𝒓𝒐𝒏𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝑺𝒄𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆 🌏 has all too quickly passed, but we're all that grateful for everyone who was able to be one with us and nature on that day.

So come, let us tell your fortune, and let the world around you pass by with the ticking of time.

Do not let these immobile wonders of nature 🪴 fool you. "Only humans have destiny! Only our kind have fate!" One look into meristematic stems 🌱 and totipotent roots 🥕 is all it will take to prove you wrong.
