What is an Experiment?01:12

What is an Experiment?

19.2K
An experiment is a planned activity carried out under controlled conditions. The purpose of an experiment is to investigate the relationship between two variables. When one variable causes change in another, we call the first variable the explanatory or independent variable. The affected variable is called the response or dependent variable. In a randomized experiment, the researcher manipulates values of the explanatory variable and measures the resulting changes in the response variable. The...

Hybridoma Technology01:31

Hybridoma Technology

17.8K
Hybridoma technology is used for the large-scale production of monoclonal antibodies. Monoclonal antibodies bind to only a single antigenic determinant or epitope. Such antibodies are used in research, diagnostics, and disease therapy. The hybridoma technology established in 1975 by Georges Köhler and Cesar Milstein was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1984 for revolutionizing research and therapy.

Overview of Advanced Functional Groups02:22

Overview of Advanced Functional Groups

30.4K

Functional groups are groups of atoms with specific chemical properties that occur within organic molecules and are sometimes denoted as “R”. Functional groups can “functionalize” a compound by enabling it to adopt different physical and chemical properties.
Types of Advanced Functional Groups
The table below summarizes some of the major functional groups in organic chemistry.

Extraction: Advanced Methods

1.2K
Metal ions can be separated from one another by complexation with organic ligands–the chelating agent– to form uncharged chelates. Here, the chelating agent must contain hydrophobic groups and behave as a weak acid, losing a proton to bind with the metal. Since most organic ligands used in this process are insoluble or undergo oxidation in the aqueous phase, the chelating agent is initially added to the organic phase and extracted into the aqueous phase. The metal-ligand complex is...

Thomson's e/m Experiment

7.0K
In a beam of charged particles created by a heated cathode, the particles move at different speeds. However, many applications need a beam with uniform particle speeds. An arrangement known as a velocity selector uses electric and magnetic fields to pick particles with a particular speed from the beam.
A particle with charge q, speed v, and mass m enters an area from the top, where the magnetic and electric fields are perpendicular both to the particle's motion and to one another. The magnetic...

Controls in Experiments01:13

Controls in Experiments

18.5K
When conducting an experiment, it is crucial to have control to reduce bias and accurately measure the dependent variables. It also marks the results more reliable. Controls are elements in an experiment that have the same characteristics as the treatment groups but are not affected by the independent variable. By sorting these data into control and experimental conditions, the relationship between the dependent and independent variables can be drawn. A randomized experiment always includes a...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Surgical Training
  • Digital Health

Background:

  • Traditional surgical skills curricula often demand significant faculty resources and suffer from delayed feedback and technical issues.
  • Integrating a mobile application platform offers a potential solution to these limitations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel mobile application platform for surgical skills training.
  • To evaluate learner satisfaction with the integrated mobile platform.

Main Methods:

  • The mobile platform utilized a pedagogical design based on deliberate practice and social learning theory.
  • Learners performed surgical tasks, recorded videos, received peer feedback, and individual review.
  • Graduating medical students and surgical residents participated, completing satisfaction surveys.

Main Results:

  • Fifty learners participated, submitting videos and completing peer reviews.
  • Learners reported high satisfaction with structured practice, mobile access, and immediate feedback.
  • Over 80% of learners re-recorded skills multiple times, indicating engagement with deliberate practice.

Conclusions:

  • The mobile platform successfully maintained core curriculum content and educational theories.
  • Learner satisfaction was high, with the app addressing previous challenges in ease of use and feedback timeliness.
