Eponyms (for students) app for iPhone and iPad
Eponyms brings a short description of about 1800 common and obscure medical eponyms (e.g., Rovsings sign, Virchows 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/).
• About 1800 eponyms
• Full text search
• Browse by any of the 26 categories
• Star eponyms to keep track of the eponyms you tend to forget or which you know are favorites of your professor
• List of recently accessed eponyms
• Quick and easy learn mode
The learn mode allows you to:
• swipe to the left to show a random eponym but not its title
• 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 youre currently visiting. This means you can either learn eponyms from a given category, only the ones that youve starred or simply all of them.
This is the free student version. Please only download the free version while you (still) are a student. Look for the regular version if youre a professional now.

Some bad moments
First of all I want to thank you for this great app! But I would prefer to choose german language!
Verstehe nicht warum alle med. Apps in Englisch gehalten sind! Anglzismen erobern die Welt, was stört denn so an der dt. Sprache?

The first thing I looked up was incorrect. Holter Monitor was invented by Norman Holter not Normal Holter.
Hope the other facts are correct!
the popup ads got out of control. The app crashes all the time now, automatically opens up iTunes, and puts full-screen ads up that you cant dismiss.
I love the app but its now unusable. The app keeps crashing and redirecting me to App Store to install Candy Crush. As much as Id like to play games all day, I dont have time for that or the constant reopening of Eponyms. Please fix this!!
