SNELLEN'S CHART-BASIC CLINICAL SCIENCES TUTORIAL

A Snellen chart is an eye chart used by eye care professionals and others to measure visual acuity. Snellen charts are named after the Dutch ophthalmologist Herman Snellen who developed the chart in 1862

The traditional Snellen chart is printed with eleven lines of block letters. The first line consists of one very large letter, which may be one of several letters, for example E, H, N, or A. Subsequent rows have increasing numbers of letters that decrease in size. A patient taking the test covers one eye, and reads aloud the letters of each row, beginning at the top. The smallest row that can be read accurately indicates the patient’s visual acuity in that eye.

How the Body Handles Drugs USING Kidney and Liver-INTERESTING FACT

Concentrations of Drugs in the Blood are a Balance Between Input and Output

  • The concentrations of all chemicals in your body are the result of a balance between input and output.
  • For drugs the input is usually a steady injection through an intravenous (IV) line or a periodic uptake through pills taken at regular intervals.
  • The output of drugs is mainly through 2 organs, the liver and kidney.
  • When the output equals the input a steady-state is attained and the concentration will no longer change:

U.S RESEARCH FELLOWSHIP FOR INDIAN RESEARCHERS-BIOMEDICAL OPPURTUNITIES

DESCRIPTION

The Indo-US Science and Technology Forum (IUSSTF) In association with Science and Engineering Research Council (SERC) of Department of Science and Technology (DST) announced the Indo-US Research Fellowships.This is an effort to augment scientific excellence in ernerging areas of science and technology, The objective of the fellowship is to enable young researchers from India to carry out research in frontier areas of science and technology at a premier institution in USA. The fellowship will enable early and mid career Indian researchers to acquaint themselves with new scientific research methods and at the same time build strong oilaborative linkages between the scientific communities of US and India.

Brain Waves Can 'Write' on a Computer in Early Tests, Researchers Show

Neuroscientists at the Mayo Clinic campus in Jacksonville, Fla., have demonstrated how brain waves can be used to type alphanumerical characters on a computer screen. By merely focusing on the “q” in a matrix of letters, for example, that “q” appears on the monitor.

Researchers say these findings, presented at the 2009 annual meeting of the American Epilepsy Society, represent concrete progress toward a mind-machine interface that may, one day, help people with a variety of disorders control devices, such as prosthetic arms and legs. These disorders include Lou Gehrig’s disease and spinal cord injuries, among many others.
