A Succesful Medical career with good business acumen.

A Succesful Medical career with good business acumen.







By    Iwu   Ifeanyi Olamide.






The joy we felt when we all saw our names on the admission list was magnificent, we blithely brought the list  to show our parents which in turn were happy with our achievements. The euphoria is something that would linger on in our minds. Many thoughts satiated our minds, some where to see the beautiful and eye-catching landscape the school had to offer, others were anxious to meet equally or even better intellectuals for competition sake, and a bunch of others were happy that they would see the beautiful people UNILAG had to offer.

Chikungunya: Another Mosquito situation



Tweets from the official account of the World Health Organization (WHO) have been flooding my Twitter timeline. A particular topic caught my interest. Tweets about a disease called 'Chikungunya' were difficult to ignore. Maybe it's the name, quite funny, chikungunya , couldn't help laughing. Sounds like something from Naruto. When I saw a tweet that said it was transmitted by mosquito bites,  I got even more interested. Mosquito is a vector we Africans, Nigerians know very well, in fact,  Chief Amos Quito na our padi. Who never get malaria before? Walk into any hospital and half the patients are being treated for malaria, another mosquito transmitted pathology.

So curiosity got the better of me, and I did a little research on this disease. With reliable information (avoid hoaxes, trust only reliable sources) sourced from the WHO  and the CDC USA, I was able to come up with an article on this interesting disease.

AVOIDING BRAIN DAMAGE



Avoiding Brain Damage

The brain is the center of thought, action and coordination in the human body. As a medical student or practitioner, or in any profession for that matter, you need your brain's physiology to be at its optimal best. Some lifestyles are harmful to the brain and could hinder its ability to function. Here we list and elaborate on some of them.

IT'S A ONE WORD


SHE stepped into class that morning and the first thing she released to the class was "hope you are enjoyed your holidays". This was the first among series of ear assaults we were to receive and we instantly knew something was not in place, or more was in place. We knew we were going to have a jolly ride, this was no ordinary lecture, and no ordinary lecturer. There was more to her than her simple dressing, her pleasing demeanour, and the textbooks she held in her hand. She was here to do more than teach us physical properties of liquids and gas, and set another hindrance to A, she was also here to improve our vocabulary of superb shells.

5 ESSENTIAL UNEXPECTED ASPECTS OF MEDICAL SCHOOL

5 essential aspects of medical school that you wouldn't expect

POWERED by joshuaidowu.blogspot.com
 
 
 

Interview season is winding down and budding physicians everywhere are clutching tightly to their hard-fought medical school acceptance letters. I thought now would be an opportune time to reflect on what I wish I had known before starting medical school.
Let's boil it down to five essential aspects of medical school that you wouldn't expect or are of such crucial importance you should be reminded of them.

MEDICAL SCHOOL: A POEM BY ZAZU


From Amoebas and chloroplasts
To nucleated erythroblasts.
I always linked old ships with masts,
Mast cells have made me recast.
Rulers, rockets, rheostats,
Thank God that’s all in the past.
I would yawn as time strolled past,
Now it’s running very fast.
Have you seen my day’s forecast?
Class to class, then back to class.
My class cannot be outclassed:
From the first guy to the last
Bureaucrats and Diplomats,
Quintessential Plutocrats
Geeks & Wizards, Fat & Phat
Geese & Gizzards, ratty Brats.
Pastors, Members, Counterparts,
Photostatting copycats.
Then, when results are broadcast,
Mehn, come and see acrobats.
‘Cos no feeling can outlast
Your joy, knowing you have passed.
So much joy, but in contrast
Many skies are overcast,
For among the enthusiasts
There are those who haven’t passed.
I once thought all docs had hearts,
But now I am very smart.
And it goes far beyond that:
My brain has been torn apart.
Renin? Rennin? This or that?
Who knows glucose glucostat?
ALT ain’t alternate.
CAT is not after a rat.
FISH is not part of breakfast,
PDA is in the heart.
Hippocrates where you at?
We need to have some chitchat.
‘Cos in that oath that we chant
Some lines are irrelevant;
You should see machines we gat
They are more than works of art.
First the kidneys, then the heart,
Now it’s bone marrow transplant.
I was a genius, so brilliant,
Now I look so ignorant.
Surgery was done by humans,
Now robots have other plans.
The future is so pregnant,
Time is never hesitant.
Soon the scalpel will depart,
Stitches insignificant,
Foetuses will choose their looks,
We’ll do surgery on Facebook

PHARMACY IN UNILAG

Are you a current/aspiring student of pharmacy in the university of Lagos? Here are some details on the faculty sourced from the school's website.






Faculty of PHARMACY
Year Established : 1984
Dean : Professor U. E. Mendie
Sub Dean : Dr.(Mrs.) Mbang Owolabi
Faculty Officer : Mrs. A. A. Akinyeye
Description :
GENERAL PHILOSOPHY OF THE PHARMACY PROGRAMME
Pharmacy may be defined as that profession concerned with the art and science of preparing from natural (plants, animals, minerals, microorganisms, etc.) and synthetic sources, suitable materials and medicaments for use in the treatment and prevention of diseases. A thorough knowledge of the formulation procedures, storage, distribution and safe use of these medicinal preparations is subsumed in the above definition.  Pharmacy is therefore a science based profession which is strongly predicated on studies in the areas of the pure and applied physical, chemical and biological and technological sciences.
The general philosophy of Pharmacy richly endowed education is to produce and develop well educated persons – (i.e. persons developed in knowledge, mind and character). The ultimate objective of any professional education is to produce practitioners with adequate knowledge and skills who will provide professional and useful service to the fatherland and mankind. The undergraduate education in pharmacy is designed and intended to prepare students for the profession of pharmacy.  The philosophy of pharmacy education borders on the establishment of standards to ensure quality pharmacy education.

MEDILAG HOTSPOTS FOR LOVERS

So you're a medico in Idi-Araba and wanna catch some fun with your *****, these places you help. At your own risk tho



MEDILAG’S BEST KEPT SECRETS

In a school that literally never sleeps, it’s hard for lovers to get some privacy to do ‘what lovers do’ but believe it or not as impossible as it may sound, whether noon or night, couples in Medilag have come up with exclusive lovers’ spots, where they brazenly carry out ‘acts’ of love. Writers club put nose to ground and sniffed out some of the secret places couples go to be alone. Well guess after this, it would no longer be a secret, Sorry guys…

10 Labour Ward Medical Students’ Call Room: We are starting with this place because the school now also knows the alternate use to which the call room is put thanks to some couples who forgot to pack all their bag and baggage and left behind a used contraceptive for one of the cleaning ladies to discover. Now, you also know why for some time medical students that were not on call couldn’t get in to the labour ward.
9 College Library: the library all over the world has always been a romantic haven for couples who like to live on the fast lane; well Medilag is not an exception! Lovers that can’t wait for the covers of darkness, hide under the covers of bookshelves. Yes, they are responsible for the creaking noise you hear while you are trying to read!
8 Stairs Of Old Great Hall: If you have ever wondered what the first floor of the Old Great Hall is used for, the couples of Medilag have the answer. Anytime between the hours of 10:00pm and 2:00am, if you climb this staircase, you run the risk of running into half naked people swapping saliva.
7 Former Football Field: the football field closure was an all round tragedy, both for sportsmen and Medilag couples. Where else could you go to make out, look at stars and feel the grass scratch your back and yeah of course, play football?
6 Anatomy Lab Car Park: reserved exclusively for couples with cars. Yep! Your guess is as good as mine; all the cars parked outside don’t belong to the anatomy staff. They don’t stay up that late…
5 London Bridge: what is the London Bridge? Well, the London Bridge gets girls into boys’ hostel after visiting hours and also houses couples who don’t mind a little P.D.A. Where is the London Bridge? Well there are 3 of them and they run between blocks 1 and 2.
4 S.O.N. Field: popularly known as the most blessed ground on the premises of Medilag going by the number of prayers that go on there daily. Well, unknown to many, as the prayer warriors pray fervently, the lovers are committing all the atrocities that are forbidden by God right on the same field!
3 Hall 36 Car Park: ever heard of a drive in cinema? Well, Hall 36 is Medilag’s equivalent of that except that there is no projector, no screen and no movie but wound up cars, hugging, kissing and well.. you get the picture!
2 New Great Hall Staircase: it’s convenient, why? It’s close to cold room, so when a boy is tired of reading all those medical jargons and needs a break, he grabs his girl and heads up the new great hall staircase and they are entertained by the music from the fellowship going on downstairs.
1 Luth Cafeteria: might not be the first place that comes to mind when you are hungry but it is definitely on a lot of text messages if you know what I mean. The maze like verandah keeps inquisitive security men away, while the tall flowers keeps off curious eyes. Recently, a couple was found frolicking on a carton on the verandahs of Luth Cafeteria and it made good talk between security guards but it also shed light on what is Medilag’s best kept secret when it comes to romance…the Luth Cafeteria!

FOUNDATION PROGRAMMES’ ENTRANCE EXAMINTATION RESULTS 2013/2014

.
FOUNDATION PROGRAMMES’ ENTRANCE EXAMINTATION RESULTS
Unilag Foundations regrets to announce that the results of the Foundation Programmes’ entrance examination is yet to be uploaded on this website.


This will be done at a later date.
Please accept our sincere apologies.

Source; UNILAG website : www.unilag.edu.ng

From this, its obvious the foundation extrance exam result isn't out yet and wouldn't be anytime soon. This is probably due to the ongoing ASUU strike. For the aspiring Medicos waiting for this result, keeping praying and believing the best. Find something good to do with your time to take the tension off. Remember, BE POSITIVE

UNILAG SUPPLEMENTARY LIST ANALYSIS
So the merit list is out, and thankfully, many of you made it. Regretfully, however, many of you didn't. This group of people are the ones now looking to the supplementary admission list to smile. To take off a little tension, and to prepare you for what to expect, we'd be analyzing the UNILAG supplementary admission list based on past occasions.

Congrats to the newly admitted medical students

 
You've made it!!! Among thousands of students who applied, you were selected. Wrong, not selected like in other parts of the world, but you merited it, you passed. Medical school admission is not something you're given, you take it by force. Since the time of John Hopkins, the colleges of medicine have suffered violence, and the violent take it by force.

A NIGHT TO REMEMBER

A poem by ZAZU, a medical doctor.

What! Past 10 and I’m still sleeping!
My alarm’s been beep-beep-beeping.
Should’ve been in class since seven,
I know I shouldn’t have eaten.
Man, I have read nothing today,
I didn’t come to school to play,
All these courses I must read them,
Off to class until 5.00am.
-with coffee, and packs of chewing gum
Just to drive off sleep when it comes.

#MEDICAL SCHOOL ADVICE: TIPS FOR BEING SUCESSFUL IN A MEDICAL EXAM




Tips for Being Successful on a Medical School Exam

Medical School Blog

So, you get your tentative schedule for your first week of class, along with some required reading assignments that will be discussed in lecture, power point slides, and maybe even some practice problems. What do you do? As I mentioned before, medical school is like sipping water from a fire hydrant. With that said, any chance you have to "get ahead" and lessen the high powered flow of information that is going to be coming your way, take it! You'll thank yourself later. Here are some suggestions for things that have worked for me so far.
1. Pre-read. Many professors will give you reading assignments for lecture. Read them, all of them if you can, but if you are pressed for time, at least read the introduction, all the bolded titles and subtitles and the conclusion/summary of the material at the end. This will help you have a basic foundation for the material that you are going to cover in lecture that day. You may feel like you aren't being efficient with your time since you are taking time to cover material that you aren't familiar with and that is going to be explained to you in lecture anyway, but trust me, this is extremely helpful.

#MEDSCHOOLADVICE: MAKING IMPACT IN YOUR CAREER




 Making   meaningful Impact in your Career by Joshua Tolulope Idowu

The future is so bright for those who are not just ready to get on their tracks but to run!  Not just running but running purposefully! Ben Carson is great a successful neurosurgeon who separated a craniopagus Siamese twins but he did not start from there, he ran a race in Medical School, Professor Devauchalle an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon ran the race in dental school and he was the first person to carry out a face transplant! You want to break grounds? Don't sit there. The exceptional ones are Moving on while the general ones are sleeping.
