Resolve to be New

Novelty is the aspect of human beings that differentiates him from any other creation. So what is actually, so peculiar to the humans in generating the feeling of newness. The aspect of newness is a "feeling". If one can reason out, there are only relative newness and oldness. In fact everything is as old as the universe. The notion of age is limited and restricted to the subjective observer, and for the all pervading Supreme One there is nothing which is new or old. The nature of our reality is essentially ageless. This post was intended for the "New" Year, but it has got delayed for a good. This post is also inspired  by  the world outside which always enquires on "Isn't there anything new?". The question is heard from all corners  starting from when one is a child to even the elderly class. The intension of the article is to enlighten a fire of inquisitive thought process that can drive you to identify the novelty in you.

Novelty is an energy which emanates to evaluate yourself, and measure your own improvement against the past in you. It is a positive change which gives you a push to perform and act differently by overcoming the faults of yesterday. In a way it accelerates growth and helps to bring the best talents in you. In the language of science it is an adaptive exercise, that bring the perfection out of you. As, is oft said novel nature should arise from the inner side of your self, and not from any external factor. Such a innovative idea shall belong to the world forever. So wish you all to a year of newness.

Healthcare and Wearables

In the context of healthcare electronics, the advent of the wearable devices  and  the Internet of Things (IoTs) are going to revolutionize the age tested hospital system. The major challenge in modern healthcare services is to provide quality medical care  at affordable prices for the large number of seekers.  The emerging field of  low power electronics and the miniaturization of devices makes the wearable devices the best choice for personalized healthcare.

The concept level model for this system is to propagate the so called "health begins at home" . In other words this means to redistribute the load of the healthcare management to a wider community of health specialists, so that an equality of health related services is rendered. According to my broad (maybe vague) perception of medical field, each individual needs to undergo the three steps of Diagnosis (Prediction), Prescription and Prevention - which is easily remembered by the 3 P's. This is very similar to the analytics which our present day data scientists are familiar with. The model henceforth develops into a stronger hierarchy of medical institution, which now translates into home medicine, primary health centers,  general hospitals, speciality hospitals and research institutions in medicine. The goal in the mind of the IoT healthcare community is to come up with wearable systems (eg: gadgets) that may equip each individual to be better informed about their health status in tandem with the best in house medical doctors to be allocated 24 x 7.
