Unlearn

Learn. Unlearn. Relearn. And, to learn as well as unlearn, for all, u need to make new synapses. Not that - to unlearn the old synapses will be lost.

Brain

Our brain is a master piece. That we ourselves are unable to solve so many mysteries. So is out brain so complicated that our complicated brain cannot understand itself. Or is there lots of improvements possible that will make our brains even more complicated that we can understand it one day! Duh! Forget it. It's complicated.

Debate topic- is it correct to selectively treat people. Not on basis of money but how much good can they do to the society.

Will continued usage of computers and gadgets, shrink our brain capacity?

Which qualities and abilities are genetic and which all are acquired?

Wonder of god

I was reading Robins the other day. And look what I found. 

The polymorphism of HLA is a wonder of God indeed. Didn't get it? I ll explain 

It states -

"it is believed that this polymorphism evolved to ensure that at least some individuals in a species would be able to display any microbial peptide and thus provide protection against any antigen"

This is an additional safeguard against an apocalypse due to an organism. Because at some one lucky people in the species will be having sensitivity to that particular antigen that rose to threaten mankind. And so those people will survive and continue the species further!!

To be or not to be

You must have seen people to whom people don't pay heed. The words of these people aren't given second thoughts to. They are just taken at face value and forgotten. 

And there are other kinds of people. Whose words sting us like a bee. People whose every word is analysed. After the union ministers gave their budget speech or some famous speech, you ll find newspapers the next day giving you the counts of the number of times that minister said "I" in the speech. Imagine! People dissecting each and every part of some ones speech. It definitely takes a lot of effort to reach to that level. 

But I think, both the personalities have their pros and cons. On one side is a personality to whom no one listens even if life is in grave danger. And on the other side is a person, who will come on headlines on front pages after every third tweet.

Still lack of data?

Data on safety of drugs in pregnancy is still unavailable. What are the solutions?

Man maketh borders

All things are continuous. We have separated them into classes for our convenience. 

Take example of  squamous and columnar cells. Then we add low columnar or High columnar or cuboidal. 

Cancer-
Benign non proliferative
Benign proliferative without atypia 
With atypia
Cancerous malignant. 

Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis? There is also intermediate colitis.
