VJC students make headlines in TJY NEWS

VJC Students make astounding discovery in Biology lesson

A group of VJC students from the fantastic class of 04S22 (not all since many were absent today) made a fascinating discovery today. The teacher, Mrs Lim, was very impressed by the intellectual ability of the students and even urged them to further their ideas on qualitative research.
It was unusual how this group of students made this discovery. It shows that formal education can still serve its purpose of evoking creativity in students if the students have the right attitude.
During a normal biology lesson, the students were on the subject of fat cells, whereby an inquisitive student, Raihana, asked if there were such things such as fat cells. To the students' surprise there is, and the fat cell is like any other normal cell which has a nucleus.
Which would imply, according to biological theories, that a fat call can also undergo uncontrolled cell division if there is mutation in its tumour suppressing gene or the p53 gene, causing it to cease to produce normal regulatory proteins. This will result in cancer in fat cells.
An observant student, Eugenia, then made an observation that obesity could be due to cancer in the fat cells.
A loud student(haha), Janice, then asked the teacher if it was possible and this aroused the teacher's interest in this subject.
The teacher then urged the students to further their theory on research, and the job is going to Eugenia who is going to further her studies in Biology in renowned universities.
