Dec 14th, 2011 by sarahkeller
So for my research this semester and some general galavanting around youtube and the internet in my spare time, I came upon some interesting websites and videos to do with science, medicine, and technology. There’s everything from TEDtalks, to some rap, to other blogs, to websites about uranium and nuclear energy, to medical posters from around the world. Enjoy everyone!
Nuclear Technology in Kazakhstan:
- Nuclear News Kazakhstan
- Happy Birthday Atomic Lake!
- Russian Eugenics in Kazakhstan?! ( BBC British POV)
History of medicine:
TEDtalks:
- Our inner Neanderthal
- Potential “6th Sense” Technology
- Ultrasound Surgery – Healing Without Cuts
- How it Feels to Have a Stroke
- How we presently see “gender” – Is Anatomy Destiny?
Fun:
And on a side note, here’s some links to parts of the internet and some books that make me want to continue learning (not necessarily all scientific, but all inspiring to me):
