What is biomedical science about? What do biomedical scientists do?




Biomedical Science is a basic research field which focuses on the aspects of the human body and human health. So you study everything about the human body and about disease progression and treatment. It is a new field in India, but abroad the scope of this field is vast, especially in the UK. The UK has a 'Royal Society of Biomedical Scientists' which has laid down the work profile of a Biomedical Scientist as well. Biomedical Scientists work in a health centre, either a hospital or health research facilities. They do epidemiological analysis of current human diseases and do the necessary research work, or are involved in policy making for combating diseases and it's treatment. In a hospital setting, they are required to assist doctors by telling them about the new treatment methods for a disease and suggest preventive measures as well.

    We’ve used several nurse call systems over the years, but PK Medi Engineering’s stands out for its reliability and smart features. Integration with mobile alerts and staff location tracking helps reduce response times. Our nurses feel supported, and our patients are happier with the quick service.

    I never thought I could use my nursing degree in the legal field until I discovered Al-Razi. Their career guidance opened new doors for me.

What is a good starter plant and advice for a newbie who wants a little more flora in their life?

Image
Crassula ovata. The jade plant. It is a fun little plant that does best with a lot of sunlight and the occasional watering. It will even put out flowers under the right conditions. I have a few jade plants that have been with me 15ish years. Additionally, they are extremely easy to propagate. Just pull off a leaf or cut a stem and put it on dry soil. In a few weeks you might see the start of a new plant. A few pointers: 1. Don’t water too often, but water thoroughly. I usually water mine about once a week because they are i n shallow pots. If they were in a normal flower pot I might cut this down to once every two or three weeks. 2. Don't be afraid to prune. They will actually grow much faster with occasional pruning and weak fertilizer. 3. Pay attention to it. This sounds simple, but if it isn't doing well, catch it early. Try moving it to a spot with different lighting or away from a vent. While there are easier plants you could get, I still have fun with mine af...

How does the corona-virus replicate?

Image
Coronaviruses are very unusual, large, enveloped RNA viruses of both medical and veterinary importance. They have a genome of over 30,000 nucleotides (30 K bases) so can be called gigantic in virology sense . They are also slightly unusual in how they replicate themselves at the molecular level. They employ some unusual strategies to accomplish a complex program of gene expression. Coronavirus replication entails ribosome frameshifting during genome translation , the synthesis of both genomic and multiple sub genomic RNA species, and the assembly of progeny virions by a pathway that is unique among enveloped RNA viruses Coronaviruses have a two-step replication mechanism. (Many RNA virus genomes contain a single, large gene that is translated by the cellular machinery of the host to produce all viral proteins). Coronaviruses may contain up to 10 separate genes. Most ribosomes translate the biggest one of these genes, called replicase, which by itself is twice th...

What are the steps for plant tissue culture?

Image
Basic steps involved in plant tissue culture : Preparation of suitable nutrient medium: MS medium, White’s medium, B5 medium are few culture media. Auxins, cytokines and Gibberellins are the most commonly used growth hormones in culture medium prepared for tissue culture. Agar: It solidifies the medium and acts as a substratum. It doesn’t have any nutritive importance . It is obtained from sea weeds and is used to provide solid surface for growth. All these important nutrients are incorporated in the culture medium and transferred into suitable containers and then sterilized. Selection of explant: Explants are any excised part of the plant to be used in tissue culture like axillary buds, leaf and stem segments, root tip, shoot tip, anther, ovary and endosperm. Always young and healthy parts of plants are selected as explants. Sterilization of the explant: Explants are sterilized by using different types of disinfectants like sodium hypochlorite (2%), silver nit...
