Love Aaj Kal

The emotion of love.. mysterious, delicate, tender but potent  & powerful; it is unlike anything else. It was shown in full force in the movie.  How an all brawn Sardar, melts in front of his lady love Harleen, what he goes through to get her, was amazingly shown. Turn to present, the modern relationship between Saif and Deepika, and how it turns from practical to the ethereal.. the force of that love, how it torments them and how they can not live without each other was touching.

Good thing is everything falls in place in the end.

Worth watching definitely ! 2/08/09

Visit to Hyderabad

Had a great trip to Hyderbad, visited Dr. Savitri Sharma and Dr. Geeta Vemuganti at L. V. Prasad Hospital. Saw the excellent center of excellence that they have built. The routine work, the research and the sense of doing routine work with excellence was prevalent in the staff from lower to upper rung. Can not show some personal photos as I lost my HTC S710 cellphone on the way. Good riddance in a way! On the look out for some cell between 12 to 15 K. Let us see...    02.08.09

They do  really care about  you  MJ!

Well, his life was not exactly a dream life, but his music and dancing was.  You will agree that he was an entertainer par excellence,  the combination of the music, the dance and energy was simply unmatched.

Audio of my talk at Coimbatore Medical College

This time I had the honor of being invited to Coimbatore Medical College to give a talk on mainly Computer Assisted Literature search. So, I dealt in detail with how to search relevent medical information using common search engines like google, then went on to talk about being a power user of pubmed, pubmed advanced and MESH. Then also told about gopubmed and curbside.md. Then praised and strongly recommended the High Wire Press. Also showed the Indian Medlars Center website.

But I took the opportunity to squeeze in information about

 •What medical journals are available.
•Some useful websites, portals & algorithms
•Online lectures, webcasts, videocasts
•CMEs, Medical Statistics
•Web 2.0 – Podcasts, RSS feeds, Blogs.
•Evidence based resources
•Interact online with doctors in India and around the world through email and telemedicine.

You can check the 1 hour audio by clicking the link above.

Reunion GMC 1991 batch

Hi,

Welcome to my cyber abode!

I am a practicing pathologist, my laboratory (should qualify as SOHO, I guess!) is located in Mitra Nagar area, in Aurangabad city.  I am associated with MGM Medical College as a lecturer. 

I did my MBBS from GMC Aurangabad in 1997 and my MD from Ambajogai in 1999, since then I have been using the internet for educating myself

I am keenly interested in reading books,  telepathology, web site development and little bit of computer programming too. 

Through the medium of internet and telepathology, I like to interact with pathologists and laboratory professionals from India and around the world. I mingle with my online friends through these mailing lists.  I find this activity very educative and enlightening. You could say, I am a pathologist educated by the internet & online colleagues!

I have presented number of cases in Indian and International online forums; These cases can be found here. I think, I have learnt lots of things in the process.

I am quite passionate about application of computers and internet for improving health care delivery. Hence, I have started a newsletter called “The Monthly Microscope”. In this, some new & interesting abstracts, gleaned from online medical journals are discussed. All the issues of this newsletter can be found at above link, that is - http://drss.kale.googlepages.com/mmicroscope.htm

I have also experimented with giving online talks. These talks (slides & audio) can be checked out here – 

1) Build your own free website in 10 min  (Plays in Windows Media Player) 

2) Internet resources for Dr. Sushruta  (Plays in Windows Media Player, audio quality poor)  

3) Lab diagnosis of Malaria  (Plays in Real Player; presented in Physician Asso. of Aurangabad)  PowerPoint file of the same presentation is here. If you see this as a PowerPoint 'show', you can hear me talk also!

4) Telepathology and Teleducation resources for pathologists (Plays in Real Player)

So that's it, if you feel like contacting me regarding anything and everything,  just drop an email.
