Brain & Its functions ...

BRain - the most important part of human body . It is the central operating system of the body . Every time we think , we blink our eye , even we move our hand , there is some chemical reaction is happening in the brain and some electric current flow occurs , thats why we are alive , or the brain is alive .  When this electric flow stops , then brain death occurs .  There is a new trend in Brain science , that is Brain atlas or Brain mapping .  Different part of the brain is responsible for different functions of the body . In Brain Atlas the scientists and Doctors are trying to map human or animal brain for a particular disease or particular functions . USA has already declared a large amount of money to be spent in Brain Mapping .  It is really very interesting -- the BRain Atlas . If we successfully develop brain atlas then we can detect the causes of mental disorders or some neuron related diseases . In the recent conference of BRain and Consciousness in ISI Kolkata scientists and doctors discussed a lot about this Brain Mapping .  They also discuss about mental disorders like Schizophrenia , Bipolar disorder and also about Hub gene etc . There were present Prof Dwijesh Dutta Majumder and also some other eminent scientists and doctors across India . Invited talks and other lectures were very important in its contents . Prof Amit Konar lecture was another important lecture in the conference . He talked about artificial limb or prosthetic limb and how to use them just like normal limb . He also discussed about fMRI and other methods of capturing human brain signals in computers . This is called Human Brain Computer interaction . It is a very interesting topic . This two day conference was really helpful for me and for my friends understanding brain and its functions .

Durga Puja is coming !!

Durga puja is coming . Puja is knocking the door . Its a great feeling to celebrate Bengali's greatest festival with joy and pleasure . Shopping is already done . New clothes give a special dimension in the joy of the festival . Not only new  clothes but  new shoes , new friends , new "love" everything is there in air of puja . A sense of love is prevailing in the air . Love is in the air . A very romantic feeling that can not be expressed in words . Dura puja is our greatest festival , but it is celebrated all over the world , not only in various parts of India , but different parts of the world . Thats why it is becoming international . I have a plan for celebrating Durga Puja . All day ( the five days of Durga Puja  Sasthi + Saptami + Asthami + Nabami + Bijaya Dashami  ) Pandle hopping with friends , eating at restaurants , enjoying Dhak's musical sound , dancing with burning   Dhunuchi and then late night Addas . After that a tour to Nepal ( Kathmandu , Pashupati Nath's Temple )  for ten days .  This is the schedule of my puja vacation . In the midst of this joy , I have to attend a seminar at St Thomas College at 8 - 9 oct 2013 . I have got the invitation from my college to attend the seminar . I will attend that definitely . There are several puja cassettes already available in the market , and also some puja Barshikis . Puja is coming , love is in the air . I have already bagged some gifts from my sisters and my brother - in - laws . These are awesome gifts . These are puja gifts .
