Mangaluru: A unique website named meduhub.com, a user-friendly and perfect learning platform for medical students was launched here on November 11 at Ocean Pearl hotel.

Meduhub.com, a brian child of Dr Prashanth Hegde is an learning platform and best integrated learning resource for medical scholars and professionals by leveraging experimental methodology, advanced technology and design.

Renowned radiologist, educational entrepreneur and visionary along with his team have come up with this unique website to make medical education new-age, accessible and engaging. It makes a student to anylyse, enquire and understand the concept followed by activities.

Mangaluru’s leading orthopedic surgeon and Pro-Chancellor, Nitte University Dr MA Shantaram Shetty launched the website. Addressing the gathering Dr Shetty said, “I consider its indeed a privilage to be a part of this unique program ‘meduhub’ has been launched for the betterment of education.” Education, he said intends to make a person more knowledgeable, understandable, to make a living and go ahead in life. “In a country where nearly 28% of people are still illiterate, another 30% of people are involved in latest technology. We are in position to compete with any country, “he said adding that education must make people more humane.

He further said that epic Mahabharatha talks of three types of students- one was Eklavya who never had any teacher, deep in the forest, he kept a portrait of Dronacharya and started learning archery. Second was Karna, who was deprived of the best of the education, he sacrifices and goes to Parashuram and later he even gets punished for seeking knowledge. Third was Arjuna, who got everything in life, including comforts and education. But all the three achieved a great deal in their own ways. “So what is important in education is that inherent faith in oneself, that he will learn and relearn to be a better person,” he said adding that a teacher who just teaches is an ordinary teacher, a teacher who demonstrates is a good teacher and a teacher who inspires is a true teacher.

Meduhub provides information on three basic subjects – anatomy, physiology and biochemistry. Meduhub and various other modifications that have come up, a student can learn what classes have been taken today, what classes will be taken tomorrow and what he wants to learn in that particular subject.

He said that Mangalore is a small city with 5 lakh population and 7 medical schools, which cannot be seen anywhere else. “Even Boston and Maccau have only 6 medical schools. Nowhere in the world exists a city with 5 lakh population 7 medical schools,” he said wishing Meduhub grows at national and international level helping a medical student to learn and relearn and be a better doctor tomorrow.

Dr Prasad Hegde, renowned radiologist, educational entrepreneur and visionary, the man behind meduhub said, “From last one year we are working on this website. We wanted to bring in technology and transformation and make it integrated. This is a platform for medical students, basically who join medicine, they get aided with this course material, where subjects are integrated and transformed into methodology. There are case scenarios, students can be engaged in, activities, and there is exam-oriented preparation. Till now we did not have structured training methodology in our medical schools. Here there is an effort to bring in very structured methodology. What we have started with is with first year subjects, that is anatomy, physiology and biochemistry. Eventually along with student, it will grow into future medical subjects of medicine, and also it will follow him to his post-graduation, and also into his life like his personal assistance. This will help you in better way so that data what you are gathering throughout your life as a medical student, thereafter as a practitioner, it will be accessible to you from a single point source. This is not only as a study material, but also aide in your patient’s service, as continuation of you own improvement.”

Dr Sudarshan, Dr Jayaprakash and many other doctors, students were present on the occasion.
