Yes, this is very well known. I know someone who has this problem. - Dr Alan Cann

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring measures blood pressure at regular intervals throughout the day and night. It is believed to be able to reduce the white coat hypertension effect: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... - Dr Alan Cann

madihhaaaaaa, im doing it now and struggling on parts :( , what practicals did u do? - Rebecca Zammit

Too many things were taught in just two hours tutorial today! these clips includes everything that was discussed in second half of the tutorial - "cardiac action potential". it helped me alot to go over things i wasn't sure of and i tink this clip explains it quite well. - Madiha Butt

I mosty definetly agree, a lot was covered in that lecture so this video breaks it down nicely for us :) - Michael A-T

Researchers at Korea University in Seoul have transmitted data at a rate of 10 megabits per second through a person's arm, between two electrodes placed on their skin 30 centimetres apart. Could this approach help to monitor electrocardiography (ECG) or electroencephalography (EEG) in future? - Madiha Butt

'Blood pressure gene', the STK39 gene variant was found after scanning the entire genetic code of hundreds of people in the US and Europe. This new way of scanning approach might help researchers to identify those individuals who may be more prone to hypertension. However, there are other factors involved such as; environment and lifestyle. - Madiha Butt

A short clip to understand the electrical activity (electrocardiogram) of the human heart. Physiology Practical 3. - Madiha Butt

@Jalal - stop copying my comments :'D - Kashif Qamar

Understanding high blood pressure - helpful for physiology practical 3! - Madiha Butt

Good information about the prevalence of CVD in different countries. - Kashif Qamar

Yeah, I actually enjoyed the whole process. Some of the markers were more concerned with the the group work aspect of it rather than the content of the poster. =) - Aisha Siddiqui

Yea - I actually quite enjoyed it! It was nice to see that people appreciate the ahrd work you put into a project. - Shayna Jo Franzetti

The most successful treatment for someone at high risk of diabetes is diet and exercise! - Madiha Butt

Why cant there be a treatment suggesting eat loads and do nothing. - Kashif Qamar

Function of neuromuscular junction - Madiha Butt

having animations does help understand this concept. - Kashif Qamar

Can we grow organs instead of transplanting them? Anthony Atala's lab at the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine is doing just that!! Watch this clip to find out more/ - Madiha Butt

I didn't know research in this area was so advanced! its very interesting :D - Freya Satchell

"Basically, we are a walking bacterial colony," ... analysis of the genes carried out to understand how the gut flora is affected by diseases. - Madiha Butt

a very Interesting talk by Vilayanur Ramachandran tells us what brain damage can reveal about the connection between celebral tissue and the mind, using three startling delusions as examples. - Madiha Butt

y u repeated the links ;) - Kashif Qamar

i didnt!! - Madiha Butt

Another interesting short talk by Neuroscientist Vilayanur Ramachandran outlines the fascinating functions of mirror neurons. Only recently discovered, these neurons allow us to learn complex social behaviors, some of which formed the foundations of human civilization as we know it. - Madiha Butt

do we all have "Gandhi neurons"? - Madiha Butt

:D:D how is the essay ? - Rebecca Zammit

:D im still not sure :( - Freya Satchell

According to the practical timetable, it's suppose to be this Thursday, the 25th. - Aisha Siddiqui

Yes, Its On Thursday. Remember To Bring Your Keypad Cause We'd Be Needing it. :) - kemisola

Could the "internal clock" control our food consumption? ...interesting! - Madiha Butt

Brief information on some common diseases that you might want to add in your Microbiology essay :) - Madiha Butt

This test picks tiny pieces of tumour by scanning for the rearrangements of DNA sequences in affected patients. It helps to track and detect whether the cancer treatment is working or if it’s getting worse. One patient’s DNA marker was found to decrease after the surgery and chemotherapy process. This test was found to be sensitive to detect the rearrangements or tiny “fingerprints” DNA that are tumours in the bloodstream. In another research, six set of cancerous and normal tissue samples were taken from patients with bowel cancer and breast tumours. In which, they found between 4 – 15 DNA rearrangements in each sample. US researchers have identified a good way to measure the “status” of cancer. On the other hand, it cost about £3,200 per patient for the personal genetic sequencing. However, scientists have predicted the costs will fall eventually as this powerful tool will be more commonly used to detect the DNA changes which would also guide them to improve the treatment of different types of cancers. - Madiha Butt

m stil confused :( m using excel 2003 btw! - Madiha Butt

are you sure u cant find any help on excel 2003 on google? - Yasmin Ghodawala

btw im not sure how long the discussion should be - Yasmin Ghodawala

lol flying was fun - Yasmin Ghodawala

:P - Madiha Butt

heyyy :) i found this site very useflul.. its clearly layed out and has some really good points on essay writing. thanks for posting - ameera laher

i thought this site was very useful for a writing a scientific report. it tells some basic things that should be taken into an account when writing a report. for example, it should use passive expressions like "it was" instead of "we". moreover, the length of sentences shouldn't be longer than 25 words. this is linked to #MB1031 - Gagandeep Bawa

A very interesting article, explains the importance of GOOD bacteria. The ratio of "good" = progenic bacteria to "bad" = pathogenic bacteria is 85:15 which clearly shows how most microorganisms in our body work to support us; such as breaking down large molecules into small molecules, eliminate toxins from our body, important roles in the gastro-intestinal wall and also to the powerfull immune system. Many interesting facts, roles and health benefits of good bacteria is explained clearly in this article... and this is just part 1! - Madiha Butt

It depends what was installed when the software was added to your computer. use the Excel Help then follow the instructions. - Dr Alan Cann

Thank you! - Madiha Butt

HELLLLLLLP :( - Madiha Butt

thank youuuuuuu x - Madiha Butt
