25th JULY- WORLD EMBRYOLOGIST DAY

  •  On 25 July 1978, Louise Joy Brown became the first baby to be conceived through IVF (In vitro fertilization) and hence  the day is  celebrated as World Embryologists Day every year.


  • Embryologists play an important role in an IVF clinic. They help in making babies happen or we can say that creating life in their hand.

  • Embryologists are those who study sperm, eggs, and embroys. They will be able to determine which sperm , eggs and embroys are the healthiest and can be selected for IVF treatment.

  •  Sometimes they are also reffered to as 'caretakers' of patients' sperm, eggs, or embryos because they are the nurturers of this new start of life

13th AUGUST - INTERNATIONAL LEFTHANDERS DAY

 The day is observed on 13 August to celebrate the uniqueness and differences of the left-handers. It is an old saying that "right-handed people operate on the left side of the brain, which means that left-handed people are functioning on the right side. International Lefthanders Day was launched by the Club as an annual event on 13th August, 1992 when lefthanders everywhere can celebrate their uniqueness and also increase awareness in the public about the advantages and disadvantages of being left-handed. In 1990, the Left-Handers Club was formed with an objective to keep members in touch with developments, create their views known to manufacturers and others. There is not yet any definite reason why some people are left-handed but it is said that about 13% of the population around the world is left-handed and it is thought to be genetic, it definitely runs in the families.
