By: Dr. Sam Saba, ND, DMD
Synopsis:

Some researchers have recently paid a great attention to the Natural Medicine, or under other names, as:Complementary Medicine, Alternative Med., Biological Med., Orthomolecular Med. or Wholestic Medicine. The reason for this change was the side effects of the chemical drugs. These side effects sometimes cause much more problems than the actual disease. At this time patient is trying to get rid of the illness through AlternativeMedicine and avoid unnecessary surgeries.According to the existing researches most health problems in the body has linkage to the toxicity of the body, shortage of water & necessary nutrients, and finally different kinds of stress. All of these can be solved by Complementary Medicine.

About the Lecturer:

Lecture 16: Application of Enterprise Architecture Practices to Governmental and Commercial Organizations

Thursday, March 12, 2009, 7:30 pm.
 

By: Afshin Abedi, PhD

Synopsis:

Today, more than ever, organizations utilize and depend upon information technology (IT) as an integral component and enabler of their business processes. An organization’s ability to meet its mission and objectives–in today’s rapidly changing business and market environments–requires optimum alignment between the underlying information technology resources and business processes. Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice provides the tools and techniques needed to increase consolidation, reduce redundancy, improve communications, and ensure implementation of proper capital planning and investment control measures. The EA practice is a rapidly developing field in both government and commercial organizations seeking to reduce costs and improve performance.

About the Lecturer:
Dr. Afshin Abedi, graduated from Vanderbilt University in 2000 in Experimental Physics. His focus was on application of electromagnetic principles to real-life problems including to that of the human body.
Upon graduation, he entered the then developing world of Wirless and Mobile Telecommunicaitons where he acted as the Director of Advanced Technology and Operations for Telnet Inc, a Wireless and IT consulting firm in Rockville, MD. He helped double the size of the company in 2 years by developing new niche products and appropriate organizational infrastructure, policies, and procedures.
He then took a VP position with CardioMag Imaging, Inc. which developes and manufactures a unique and non-invasive heart scanning device with three times the sensitivity to detect ischemia than the 12-lead EKG. It turns out that the Cardiomagnetometers developed by this firm use the same underlying technology and principles as the tools he developed during his graduate studies. He was responsible for Clincal Trials, FDA and other Regulatory activities, Medical Equipment Manufacturing, Opeartions, IT, and Strategic Planning.

At the present time, he is a government contractor working in an advisory and support role for Treasury Office of Chief Information Officer (OCIO). In this role he deals with Business, IT, security, investments, and strategic decisions, challenges and issues that face today’s large organizations.

By: Taghi Asadi Kimyai, MD

Neurologist, Washington Hospital

 Synopsis:

This lecture includes a brief review of the evolution of the human thoughts about the nature of his own mind. Dr. Asadi will talk about the human genetic structure, proteins as building block of life, then he will discuss the structure of human brain. The division of labor of the brain and some slides showing images of the working brain in active human are other parts of this presentation. It will be shown how neurologists’ studies suggest that there is no need for any metaphysical phenomenon in the brain. In other words, there is no receptor in the brain for the metaphysics. Every action or thought has a center in the brain and the brain is sophisticated enough to do everything we do.

About the Lecturer:

His subspecialty is electro-diagnostic medicine, which is the study of electrical activities of the brain, the nervous system and the muscles. He is also interested in “Cognitive Science”, which is the study of human’s behavior, and thoughts. The latter is the basis of this lecture, which is an introduction to his recent book “Creation and Evolution of Human’s Brain and Psych”. This book has more than 40 chapters dealing with most aspects of human’s mind and psych, from the big bang to present. He graduated from Tehran University, Medical School in 1974.
