There are two approaches to cooking — one that follows recipes to the minute detail by measuring at every step, and one where ingredients are combined with an intuition and practised sense of smell and taste rather than by the measuring spoon. Whatever be the method, good food nourishes the soul. Ani I V Sasi’s Ninnila Ninnila (simultaneously dubbed in Tamil as Theeni ) shows a bit of both methods and roots for the second one. Food, here, reminds the central characters of people they have loved and lost. Food also helps to revive or forge new connections, heal, and find a new purpose in their lives. Ninnila Ninnila Cast: Ashok Selvan, Ritu Varma, Nithya Menen Direction: Ani Sasi Streaming on: ZeePlex Ani Sasi juxtaposes two unlike people who will soon cross paths. An insomniac and pot-bellied Dev (Ashok Selvan) whose life has been thrown out of gear after a loss, and Tara (Ritu Varma) who hopes to fill a void by mending a broken bond.

(Subscribe to Science For All, our weekly newsletter, where we aim to take the jargon out of science and put the fun in. Click here .) In 1926, a seventeenth-century trunk containing over 2000 unclaimed letters was bequeathed to the Dutch postal museum. The letters were closed using an ancient technique called letterlocking, in which the writing paper is intricately folded and secured to become its own envelopes. Now an international team of researchers has virtually unfolded and unlocked the contents of one of the letters and the findings were published on Tuesday in Nature Communications. The team used a technique called X-ray microtomography. “The scanning technology is similar to medical CT scanners, but using much more intense X-rays which allow us to see the minute traces of metal in the ink used to write these letters,” explains one of the authors Dr. David Mills from the Queen Mary University of London in a release. The team developed algorithms to virtually ... » Learn More about How to read a 300-year-old letter without opening it

Venky Ananth SVP and global head of Healthcare at Infosys Remote areas usually have limited medical access. How do people handle emergency situations or for that matter even day to day sickness? Usually, they turn to quacks or self-medication or try to live through the pain before considering medical help. Travelling to a city to get the right help is expensive. And this is the situation in many areas in India. India has only 1 doctor for every 1457 citizens and 2 out of 3 doctors in rural areas are usually quacks. Even in cities where decent medical care is accessible, there are problems in accessing medical records, getting the right prognosis among many others. Can technology turn around the disappointing scenarios in Indian healthcare? The answer is an astounding yes.

Usually, we stick to one hospital because the data which we ... » Learn More about Solving the Myriad Challenges in Healthcare Through AI-Driven Analytics

Covid-19 : The Lingering Problem Currently, everybody’s focus is on Covid, the immediate impact and where we are pretty much in a war zone which occasionally truces and skirmishes but it looks like we are coming towards the end at least. And that brings us to a very different perspective in two ways, one is that Covid, unlike other infections, is causing lingering problems in terms of healthcare to the patients who have been so affected. We have three categories, those who seem to recover with very minimal symptoms and some asymptomatically seem to recover. They remain in the community, but for those who have required hospital attention and those with therapy have gone home recovered. ... » Learn More about Long Covid is now becoming the focus of attention: Dr. Kumud Dhital

And often it isn't as though the orders are coming from the President or prime minister, no, the systems have been built in a way -- or we have allowed them to be built in a way -- that almost encourages crushing of liberties.'
