Dialogue: 0,0:01:47.71,0:01:52.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There I came across a project\Ncalled 'Protagonismo Juvenil',

Dialogue: 0,0:02:18.48,0:02:20.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the possibility to choose what I wanted
Dialogue: 0,0:02:20.58,0:02:24.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,made me decide to attend a course\Ncalled Pre-Induction Science Program.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:24.56,0:02:26.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Among the possible projects,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:26.73,0:02:29.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,working with plants was \None of the most reachable.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:29.73,0:02:32.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, I walked to a park near my house

Dialogue: 0,0:02:51.73,0:02:53.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Surfing the Internet,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:53.17,0:02:54.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I saw that the hypothesis

Dialogue: 0,0:02:57.75,0:03:01.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But there was nothing scientific about it.

Dialogue: 0,0:03:08.39,0:03:12.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,After the starting idea, I thought \Nabout the best way to use the plant.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:12.54,0:03:18.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I made tea, juice, balm, soap,\NI even made recycled paper with it.

Dialogue: 0,0:03:21.69,0:03:26.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The tea had still an acceptable taste,\Nbut, in big quantities,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:26.25,0:03:28.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it has hallucinogenic potential.

Dialogue: 0,0:03:29.49,0:03:30.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Laughter)
Dialogue: 0,0:03:30.60,0:03:35.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The juice had a horrible taste,\Nso no one would try it out.

Dialogue: 0,0:03:39.47,0:03:43.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The balm, I tested it,\Ngave results for sure,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:43.29,0:03:48.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I saw that there was a chance\Nof developing a wonderful project.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:48.63,0:03:52.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Since I didn't have a laboratory\Nwhere to develop my research,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:52.07,0:03:53.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I had to look for partnerships.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:53.75,0:03:56.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I found partnerships \Nwith some universities,

Dialogue: 0,0:04:06.77,0:04:08.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I did a battery of tests.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:08.83,0:04:12.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And, at last, I proved\Nembaúba was catheterizing.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:13.29,0:04:17.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I won many prizes,\NI also published a scientific article.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:17.15,0:04:20.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Today, many students \Nof that school do research,
