A curiosidade e o método cientifico | Kawoana Vianna | TEDxLaçador

what we know and what we already live

us who we are today and the

our questions

those we are looking for

answers that have made us who we

we will have tomorrow

curiosity is what is behind

of these questions and the curiosity

to discover

since I started doing research there

in high school

it only took some time and it was

I need her to cross an ocean

literally to understand the power said

during high school did research

studied in a school that came to

liberate foundation stay relatively

next here and there to do research

science is a true tradition.

then all students do research

since the first year at that school

I started to do scientific projects

my first project with viviane da

gabriela two technical course colleagues

in agent it was there by 2007 he was

talk about global warming and

greenhouse gases and we

We were worried, he said, but with

This, after all, will be that our school

school activities that we did

there contributed to the heating

global and we were our first

project that will calculate mathematically

with much data collection, how much

our school m aunt of gas dioxide

carbon for its activities

school while absorbed why the

school there was a

eucalyptus and was a mathematical account

to subtract there we found out

that the balance is positive

the school absorbed more gaza than I had

this is great for the environment and

people did a project presenting to be the

science and we see nothing but okay

We’re going to the next step.

I want to do a new project on my own

from eucalyptus plantations to people

realized that nothing grows around the

eucalyptus area and then we according to the

project was to create a natural drink with

leaves of eucalyptus we used to make

basically it was mixing

eucalyptus with water create an extract that

could prevent the growth of herbs

and then we were once again a

science fair show this project

we won nothing but everything because the

people are learning a lot from this

process and in the third year there was no

more compelled to project but hey

people liked that partner so much

and not gain anything to do that prevented it

to continue

and then we wanted to do something more

challenging in the third project

we decided to completely change from

time maybe the music was because

was working with the environment

so let’s go to health

and then we decided to create a bandage

covering agent particles by a

family history you know a little

the deployment process and the

was to create a bandage that could be

used in the postoperative period of

computation and reimplantation of limbs is

basically we used to be

put in that fabric some

nanoparticles that had an effect

antimicrobial drugs then prevented

bacteria and fungi if they proliferated and

another that had done only thermal and

so it would be the skin and increase the

blood flow and then again we

was with this project was a fair

we have not won anything but then

It was the other people we started to

win some prizes and then a

bit of this experience called me by

four project which is basically a

continuation of this third

both about the process of amputation

reimplantation of limbs

I realized that most of the

voting occurs in people with

diabetes usually lower limbs

because these people develop some

typical problems that we call

diabetic foot and the idea was to use

same fabric to create a sock that

could treat diabetic foot and there

Because of these projects I lived

which were awesome

I started to win some prizes and

This taught me a lot.

but basically we’ll think about how it is

this project occurs, how do they

come how the scientists

They work there and I wanted you to

close their eyes and think of a

phase of your life this wonderful

puberty can open the eyes

in fact it is a wonderful phase a

the chaos of physiology and then at puberty

We use very scientific method but

or you there for 13 years when

looked in the mirror and suddenly did not

was a red dot right in the middle of the

forehead

it was a spine the senses begin

precisely because of the observation and

then they identify the problem and

definitely a problem at the end

By week you have a party and poxa

no one wants to take the spine in faith in

party, right?

and then you start with the hypothesis that

your hypothesis may be that you

can remove this spine using the

hands and indexes from the next

step that is planning and execution

of some experiment

You go in front of the mirror.

extremists had and we go to the

result

the result was very bad as well now

live 10 meters away before

You arrive at the party will come and say

to guys

and then we go to the conclusion that the

final step but never really ends

because always in science when you

comes to a conclusion is in many

other questions

basically we start to

observation and we find a

problem

and then create a hypothesis and plans

perform an experiment that brings

results a conclusion and again

new questions

I learned a lot when I was doing research.

but I had not yet learned that

is more special and essential in

to be a scientist and it was there that I

was for Israel to achieve

see this in 2013

I was selected for Israel for the

exchange of research of five

the baseline study in what is one of the

major research centers in the world and

I was there in the middle of 80 more young people

around the world, all about to enter the

university and I was placed to

work as the mentor wants a

neuroscientist called elaeres and then with

The one I was basically doing was

try to understand some

brain functionalities

and then I always came for her

I asked and there we go.

able to solve when you understand what

the project wants to unveil

The problem is that we will solve

she spoke cabin I do not know why

what are you going to see I was so frustrated

with that because in my vast

experience of

all high school

I thought scientists were people

who used a scientific method to

solve problems actually it was not

nothing and then a dinner with the

president of the institute

he told us that there at that institute

the scientists were selected by their

degree of curiosity curiosity was

Word did not matter what

what your project was that mattered was

the one with motivation he was responding

some question and I’ve never stopped

to think that way I always

I thought I would serve the projects

what he was doing

but when you work motivated by

your curiosity to answer some

questions for which we are still

no response

you go beyond the borders of

knowledge that you were not

predicting that outcome and generally

the results that we do not foresee

are great and so with a lot of

frequency real problems are

resolved by means of the result of such

research that emerged from the mere ger-

decreasing the curiosity of scientists

then curiosity seemed to be the word

in this process but it is not

any curiosity in a phase of the day

from queirós kids curiosity is the

instinct that leads some to look

the keyhole and other

discover america then it looked like

to tell me that there were questions that

deserved to be made and it is about this

look of scientists observe curious that

I would like to talk to you

what are the questions that you

want to respond and to rescue this

look we need to go back a little bit to be

child

the kids are always full of

questions after all where do babies come from?

after all why the blue sky and why I

I have to sleep at this time because I

I have here to bathe the children.

are always full of questions but

when we become adults

we become full of certainty that

we think we know who the

people are and how the world works and

people forget to ask questions and then

people forget what scientist wants

break paradigms and a curiosity that

genuine and a willingness to change a

and when we turn on the tv it opens at

social networks the newspaper for every day

because we look at the world full of

certainties of political facts in brazil

public health is corrupt in the

Brazil does not work and education

Public is up and you have to

take care when you go out on the street because

it’s all so violent

and then we forget that the certainty

leaves our comfort zone and that in the

questions that we grow we

make more scientists if each one here

look at how a scientist people are

forget the certainties and ask questions

after all how can I improve the

education in our country and will have to

reduce social inequalities I

I get an end to urban violence

So Scientist Bring More Questions

to the game and it’s about those questions

which I would like to share with

you my current questions because

Let me start doing research.

started to be more restless

I discovered that I could be

protagonist and that all the problems

that we were in the newspaper, I could

choose one who might have

my heart beat stronger and try

create a question the situation the

I try to come up with a result maybe

change a little of reality

in this way the project called

open research scientist throughout the

high school and after some time

I did not know much more about what to do

experience that is not simply

count on the people I had done

that

And then I have a father at home who always

that I had to write about

talk to the young people they

could live that there were so many

young people who did not know what to do

that and inside me that is a

question that was making my heart 2012

tight that was what I can do

with all that I’ve lived

is it possible to transform

of other young people like mine was

transformed and once you

feel that you have a question if

you have two choices you put her in

drawer and forget it

Are you going to do an experiment that

the science of an initiative that

beta scientist who connects young people

Brazilians with science

What we do is give a group of

very funny people very

committed to connecting young people with

high school there are projects

scientists encourage these

young people to look at the world with a

curious look of a scientist

we say they can be

restless and no problem this is

great

of those problems they see

world around you can be resolved.

and that they can create a project

to propose some type of

solution and then what we do is

offer content on how to do

research mentors of the whole country who

did research and started to follow

these young people and challenges

and so I ended up somehow

answering a little of my

questioning that question that

it was borrowed now had an answer

to do a scientific project of the

high school to have the look of a

scientist can change the lives of these

young people is changing the lives of young people

brazilian

and then I can see in the future how much

this may transform some of our

reality of education in our country

when these young people but what they create

projects what we are creating

young people who create projects that create

solutions that are more

protagonists and whether this tea as part

of the problem but the solution and but how

I’m a scientist and for me, what matters

are the questions

the question that is inside me today

is what of great and young people still

I’m going to pretend they’re still going to

to surprise

And for you I wanted to ask the

question that moves you about so new

look at our own existence

question

wake up with you every day will be

What are you pouring into this?

question by creating an experiment that

It was the result of a conclusion and

new questions in 2010

after that succession of events of

make a project and a fair do not win

nothing to do another project and for a fair

again nothing is gained

there comes a time that I left the score 0

who was and does not win anything at the fair

Then I got a place in the

largest science fair in the world that

happens in the united states is there

representing my country I ‘m just going to take

completely my life and I remember

that I was entering the fair at

first time in the united states

the first time in an international event

first time and did not show what was

making people speak another language

that I enter the fair that a plate well

great writing the welcome reach

tomorrow and then I understood that all that

my search for answers while

did project did build a

tomorrow that there was not then what I

I can let you think

Only tomorrow, what do you want?

construct listen to the questions that

are within you when people

search for these answers

we build a future that does not

exists and goes beyond the borders of

We know how to create a world.

better or less we show people

best

after all we are what we already live

what we know makes us start today

are those questions for the

which we are incessantly

seeking answers that make us

we will have tomorrow

thanks
