Koichi Tanaka



Hi readers!

Today, I am going to write about a person who has won a Nobel Prize, for that, I have chosen Koichi Tanaka, because he won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 2002, for his development of soft desorption ionisation methods for mass spectrometric analyses of biological macromolecules.

Koichi is a Japanese engineer, was born in Toyama City, Japan. He attended Toyama Chubu High School in Toyama City. In 1983, he graduated from Tohoku University with a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering. After graduation, he joined Shimadzu Corporation, where he engaged in the development of mass spectrometers.

Violence against women




Hi readers!
I'm going to write about violence against women.
The history of violence against women remains vague in scientific literature. This is in part due to the fact that many kinds of violence against women (specifically rape, sexual assault, and domestic violence) often go unreported or under-reported, often due to societal norms, taboos, stigma, and the sensitive nature of the subject.
