Did you know that the invention of the stethoscope was rooted in modesty? In 1816, physician René Laennec invented this tool because he felt uncomfortable pressing his ear against a woman's chest to listen to her heart. His simple wooden tube transformed the way doctors observe vital signs, marking the birth of modern diagnostic medicine!

WOD Head

To hide one’s true feelings. For example, 'He tried to dissemble his true feelings behind a facade of calm.' Pronounced as DIH-SEM-BUHL.

Quote of the day

'If well thou hast begun, go on; it is the end that crowns us, not the fight.'

— Robert Herrick
