The first speech, about yoga and its effect. I missed the first part because i went for free breakfast 😀in between, bad news for Divya Deepa trust. The plan for a stall in this meet didn't succeed because we hadn't asked for permission in time. Ok. Back to yoga.Says, yoga is better than normal exercise…

Here's the summary of the first speech i listened to in MAA Utsav. Dr AjayKumar is an oncologist and founder of hcg cancer treatment the statistics, he says, say that there are only 1 million new cancer cases in India while it's 1.5 in usa. This is obviously error of enumeration. And it's exemplified in…

In the audi listening to wonderful speech by Dr B S Ajaykumar, cofounder of hcg, cancer treatment institute in Bangalore and around India.It's the alumni meet.

Yes, a lot happened after those tense two weeks. No, I didn’t go home. But I went around Karnataka with friends. Tumkur, Bangalore in 2.5 days.

But special notebooks were being provided.And though 'blood' wasn't given the prominent status as we thought it'd be, i guess i did well. Running to Biochem practical hall from…

Just out of biochemistry exam hall. The questions were not all unexpected. And the answers were meager as expected. Lesson learned: Don't study for an exam, study for life

These are two of the various byproducts of preparation for exam 1. How is antibiotic resistance formed? There are some resistant bacteria, and a lot of non resistant. Then the weaker ones are killed by tablet. Stronger by lymphocytes or macrophages. If tab stopped halfway, immunity can't wipe out all those rest, and they'll start…

Here's the resolution that's doing its round: "I'll study systematically after this exam" well I've been telling that ever since 9th standard. Let's see, how the habits formed during stress conform during relief. Not to forget the "6 pack abs before human experiments in physiology" resolution. As a part of it I've been jogging 6…
