Eponyms2.0
Publisher Description
Eponyms brings a short description of about 1800 common and obscure medical eponyms (e.g., Rovsing's sign, Virchow's node) to your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. A perfect tool to quickly look up the meaning of any eponym.
It uses the beautiful eponym database from Andrew J. Yee (http://www.eponyms.net/).

. Full text search
. Browse by any of the 26 categories
. Star eponyms to keep track of the eponyms you tend to forget or with which you want to test your students on
. List of recently accessed eponyms

## Learn Mode
The learn mode allows you to:

. swipe to the right to show a random eponym title but not its text
. pull down to reveal the hidden info
Learn mode displays eponyms from the category you're currently visiting. This means you can either learn eponyms from a given category, only the ones that you've starred or simply all of them.
