Publisher's description

From Apache License :

Eponyms brings a short description of more than 1'700 common and obscure medical eponyms (e.g., Rovsing's sign, Virchow's node) to your iPhone 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/) who still maintains the database, updates can be installed right from within Eponyms.

*** Features:
More than 1'700 eponyms, updates can be downloaded right from within the App
Full text search
28 categories as well as the full list
Customizable "starred" list to keep track of the eponyms you tend to forget or which you know to be favorites of your professor ;)
List of recently accessed eponyms
Learn mode

*** Learn Mode:
After enabling learn mode in the preferences (accessible from the category overview screen by tapping the (i) button):
Shake your device sideways in order to display only the name of a random eponym
Shake it up and down to only display the description of an eponym
In both cases, a "Solve" button appears which displays the missing information. Learn mode randomly displays eponyms from the category you're currently visiting (or you've last visited). So you can either learn eponyms from a given category, only the ones that you've starred or just all of them.

*** Non-students:
This is the free student version. Please only download the free version while you (still) are a student.

What's new in this version:

Diacritic searching and sorting
Learn mode - guess the eponym name from the eponym text or vice versa
Option to turn off interface rotation
Interface improvements
Now sports 1'717 eponyms
The free student version now displays ads
