This not only links the best minds of IIT with medical graduates but also helps in further deepening research and innovation between the two,which is essential in today’s world but doctors on social media are criticising without understanding the context of such decisions @IITKgp
Rather than a simple Google search,many on social media are questioning how IIT Kharagpur would train medical postgraduates,Here you go:both hospitals are connected to IIT Kharagpur,and resident doctors are likely to be posted there.I believe every IIT should adopt this approach

Just wondering where will these MD students especially General Medicine students get to see patients and who will be guiding and teaching and mentoring.
Is there a hospital attached to IIT?
@swaminathaniisc Dr Swami works at IISC bagchi medical college and he is the inaugural Chair Professor there
Woah… therapeutic vaccines 😮
We have always learned in medical school that vaccines belong to primary prevention, yet this is new the therapeutic personalised vaccine 💉 Interesting 👌🏼
We’re making a personalized cancer vaccine for Yash, a 34 year-old pancreatic cancer patient, in the open with his consent.
We want external experts to review our design and make their own contributions before we manufacture it at the RNA Foundry.

Hey @googlehealth Your app is severely disrupted and currently refuses to update daily metrics despite a successful sync following the 5.12 update. Please resolve this as soon as possible. The issue has been troublesome since the 5.11 update, and it has grown much worse with 5.12

The issue began with poor marketing on your part,You should’ve informed people about standard metrics it measures such as HR,HRV,sleep etc and displayed comparison charts from your tests like heart rate accuracy versus existing wearables before introducing entropy
Dear Concerned Indian Doctors,
I see your rage against Temple on X. I have a few points
to make:
1. First and foremost, a business lesson: if Temple were a scam, and any of what we said weren't true, people would know it in just a few days of using Temple. We have 14-day, no-questions-asked returns (which even Apple doesn't offer in India). If the product doesn't work, it fails out of the gate and the company dies before recovering a tenth of its R&D.
2. We have already spent $30m building Temple, $20m out of which is my own money. Selling a few thousand devices recovers a small fraction of this investment. A scam that pays nothing is not a scam anyone would run.
3. I left the Eternal CEO role to chase purpose with Temple. This is not about money. I have enough of it to last for generations. My incentives are fully aligned with getting the science right. I am not staking a reputation earned over 20 years on making a quick buck.
4. Our employees bought into our round a few months ago. The round we're raising now is mostly our customers. Scams don't build that cap table.
5. Most wearable companies start with internal studies. Whoop shipped its band in 2015, and the first published validation followed a few years later. We hold ourselves to a higher standard; pre-prints are a step prior to peer reviewed publications, and they are coming up.
6. At some point you have to stick your neck out and say: we believe in our science, and the product is now valuable enough for people to pay for and use. We believe we are there. More validation continues in public.
7. We are confident that we are building something that the world is going to be positively astonished with. We stand by our science and our methods. Each of our claims is easily verifiable by individuals and institutions alike, and you will see a lot of independent studies come up on their own when the device becomes available to use.
Last but not the least, the most ground breaking features in Temple are not even public yet. And some of them, thankfully, have nothing to do with doctors 🤭
Hope this addresses some or all of your concerns. If not, keep raging 😘🤗

Don’t create a new FOMO man..There are enough resources in india,If you do them diligently it’s more than enough..Those whose have been paying attention to their academics from their UG definitely has edge over someone starting late..Start early and stay ahead is the best way
Telegram pe Uworld ka pura Qbank milta h btw with it's explanations. Micro, Biostats, medicine units especially cardiology, surgery, obg. If you do these questions and read the explanations it's insane insane edge. My GT giving confidence skyrocketed when I did Uworld qns.

You tamil guys fight against Hindi imposition this that and all but never question your government about these why? Lowest stipend in the southern states and 3yrs of bond exploitation..Dont you guys have RDA to represent to the govt? At least try now since theres a new govt
Being a tamilian myself , I felt the residency program designed in Tamil Nadu is so exploitative compared to Delhi. I chose MAMC over MMC and I am grateful for that decision three years down the lane.

Why don’t you use the same lighting conditions and camera angle for the second image as well? And let people decide

What’s was your average HR for the overall 10km run? Looking at the pace do you maintain zone 2 sir?
Running gets the glory. Walking deserves more credit!
I enjoyed a leisurely Sunday morning walk.
Walking is not a consolation prize for those who cannot run. It is an effective, accessible form of aerobic exercise with impressive health benefits.
Evidence links regular walking and higher daily step counts to:
✅ Lower risk of cardiovascular disease
✅ Lower risk of type 2 diabetes
✅ Better weight management
✅ Lower risk of premature death
A 2025 meta-analysis found that 7,000 steps/day, compared with 2,000, was associated with 47% lower all-cause mortality and 25% lower cardiovascular disease risk. (These are observational associations, not proof of cause and effect.)
Walking also generally places less impact-related stress on the body than running and is easier for many beginners, people with overweight, and some people with knee osteoarthritis to sustain.
You don't necessarily have to run to improve your health. You just have to move and keep moving.
Start where you are, walk regularly and gradually increase your pace and distance.
If you enjoy running, run.
If you prefer walking, walk.
The best exercise is one you can do consistently for years.

Just saw the review..Two points which you have mentioned need to be clear,True It doesn’t track the no of floors climbed since it lacks altimeter but it does track Vo2 max when you manually start a run on the app with gps on for atleast 20 odd minutes and gives you a Vo2max value
Finally finished the in-depth review of the Google Fitbit Air, I go in-depth and also compare it with Pixel watch 5, uploaded the video to Youtube will make it live in a few mins, once it's processed. It's a 20min in-depth review.

Finally someone has spoken the truth 💯
62% of Indian resident doctors work more than 36 hours at a stretch. 86% report severe sleep deprivation. 97% earn less than an entry level civil servant. 76% are assaulted while on duty.
We can call ourselves civilised only when we learn to treat our doctors like they treat us.

Nonsense..just because everyone uses whatsapp doesn’t mean people can’t live without it..we already have home grown apps which are capable of what whatsapp is doing already.. meta talking about encryption,privacy is a joke 🤣
No, they won't.
Enough palms have been greased in the corridors of power.
The government knows the utter chaos & disruption that WhatsApp's exit from India will cause.
THEREFORE
Meta can afford to tell the govt and India to f*** off.
THIS IS
The cost of digital colonization.
