Got Two Awards in Teaching ...

Dear Readers,

I am glad to inform you that, I got two Awards for excellence in teaching at SGU. These Awards are Banfield Golden Apple Award for Teaching Excellence and Carl Norden - Pfizer Distinguished Teaching Award. These awards are given by voting by all vet students. These are my first awards in teaching and I am really excited. Earlier I have got several awards for my research work.

Its first time any Indian has got these awards here and also it is first time any teacher has got these two awards at same time.

I have posted some fotos from Award Ceremony held last week.

Looking forward for your continued wishes, blessings and cooperation.

A case a week - new website for vets

Dear readers, 

Me and one of my colleague Dr Saul, have started a new website named A Case A Week. You can visit this website at
www.AcaseAweek.blogspot.com

In this series we will be posting a veterinary case every Monday and will ask readers to comment on the case about the diagnosis and line of treatment, or in general how they will follow the case. On the Friday of the same week will post our own follow-up about the case and will again ask the users to comment on this. Purpose of preparing this site is to share our experiences and generate good discussion for the benefit of veterinary community in general.

Users have options to subscribe the cases in their e-mail or on the reader websites. 

Best Wishes

Brain Anatomy Video

Dear Readers

Recently I have been busy in preparing a video on Brain Anatomy of Sheep. I have posted this video at www.vetvideos.com/brainanatomy.htm

This video explains about parts of brain of practical importance in vet medicine and their function. It also explains the cranial nerves and their functions. This information will be very useful in understanding the lesion localization for cranial nerve deficits. Hope all the students, vets and candidates for licensing exams. Do give your comments on this video in this post.

I will be using this blog (www.bangavet.blogspot.com) to keep users updated of the activities of my site. You can visit this blog to look for new videos/information posted on my website.

Best wishes.

Meaning of "Success"

To laugh often and love much;

To win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children;

To earn the approval of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;

To appreciate beauty;

To find the best in others;

To give off one's self without the slightest thought of return;

To have accomplished a task, whether by a healthy child, a rescued soul, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition;

To have played and laughed with Enthusiasm and sung with exaltation;

To know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived;

This is to have succeeded.

Added In-built search option for websites

Hi Vets

Today I added a new feature to my websites www.vetvideos.com and www.bangavet.com.
This new feature is IN-BUILT SEARCH. This option will help the users to search net from these sites only. This search has been powered by Google search engine.

In addition to this it is possible to search the contents of my websites only. E.g. if you want to search for abdominal surgery videos you can type your keywords in www.vetvideos.com site and then select vetvideos.com instead of web, this will lead you to the pages containing videos relevent to your keywords.

Hope users will like this new feture and will take advantage of it.

Happy video watching...

Intro Video for www.VetVideos.com

Launched New Video Website

Today I launched my new website www.vetvideos.com

This site has a lot of Veterinary Educational Videos including lectures by experts and many surgeries or other procedures.

Earlier this site was available in different domains and its address changed frequently in order to survive free of cost. But now I have started to pay for hosting this site and its domain name will remain static.

With new version I have added some new features to this site including Full Screen option for videos and inbuilt search engine. I will certainly strive to make my site more user-friendly and add new features.

In addition to this videos site I have prepared by own site at www.BangaVet.com, this site has veterinary educational resources at www.BangaVet.com/links.htm which include an extensive list of good veterinary websites on almost all the subjects.

All the resources on the above two websites are free of cost and are of very much help to practising vets, vet students and candidates preparing for veterinary licensing exams.

Hope you will like my collection of these resources for vets, and will vote for videos and give your feedback in my guestbook.

Best wishes to all
