One of my favorite inspirational quotes...
"It's so important to know where you are. I know where I am right now. How do you go from where you are to where you want to be? I think you have to have an enthusiasm for life. You have to have a dream, a goal. You have to be willing to work for it."
-Jimmy V (1946-1993)
"Don't give up, don't ever give up."

Greetings!
As the soft footed spring
Comes
With its redolent blooms
The wintry frost,
My heart,
I see it bleeding,
I find it lost.
Let's find ourselves in the wonderful gift of life all around us and within us.
My best- Safdar I Chaudhary M.D.  |

Rainmaking Bacteria Ride Clouds
Rainmaking bacteria that live in clouds may have evolved the ability to spur showers as a way to disperse themselves worldwide, a recent study found. The research gives scientists a fi  rst glimpse into the link between biology and climate, and into how the tiny organisms globe-trot with the weather cycle.
The microbes-called ice nucleators-are found in rain, snow, and hail throughout the world. At a high enough concentration, these organisms may be efficient drivers for forming ice in clouds, the first step in forming snow and most rain.
The critters hail from snow, soils, and young plant seedlings in such far-flung sources as Antarctica, Canada's Yukon Territory, and the French Alps. The bacteria may be part of a constant feedback between these ecosystems and clouds. Biology plays role in atmospheric processes." On the ground, researchers found ice nucleators alongside aerosols-tiny particles suspended in air-that could be chemically traced back to clouds.

Intern Inspirations |
|
|
Because of our innovative approach to combining wellness principles with the latest scientific treatment advances, S'eclairer has become an attractive internship/rotation option for medical and mental health students.
Presently Chatham, Seton Hill, Duquesne and Indiana University of Pennsylvania students complete their psychiatric rotations at s'eclairer.
Leanne Schaefer & Leanne Bertrand (pictured below) hail from Duquesne and Chatham and are part of S'eclairer's 6 week Physican's Assistant internship program during the months of January and February. 
The girls say that their experience so far has been enlightening and the DBT sessions have brought them a new outlook on Psychiatric Medicine. |
