Dr. Najeeb has created over 400 hours of medical lectures, and the selections available with this app come from a broad range of disciplines including cardiology, urinary, neurology and immunology.<\/p>\n<p>The lectures are presented in straightforward, easy-to-understand language, and some are short enough to be viewed over breaks. The videos include Dr. Najeeb making notations on a whiteboard, which can be difficult to decipher on the small screen of the iPod touch. And the price (free) is unbeatable.<\/p>\n<p>As a librarian new to medical librarianship, I am not familiar with this lecturer, and I found it difficult to learn anything about Dr. Najeeb through his website, the app&#8217;s website, Facebook page, etc. As explained in a <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/vsCnXH\">previous blog post on health literacy<\/a>, it is important to know the credentials of the person or institution providing medical information on the web. Adding this information to the doctor&#8217;s website would be simple and helpful.<\/p>\n<p>Have you used this app, or heard any of Dr. Najeeb&#8217;s lectures?
