STEAM – Average Respiratory Volumes – William Wood
My project represents human lung capacities and volumes. I have constructed this representation by using two red balloons as the lungs, and the straws that are inserted in each balloon demonstrates human lung capacities and volumes when air is blown into the straw/balloon. The balloons blow up through this air …
Effects pneumonia has on the lungs
Effects to the lungs from Pneumonia My STEAM project will be about the effects pneumonia has on your lungs. Weird question but have you ever imagined putting one of those thin plastic grocery store bags over your head just to be curious on how it would feel to not be …

Tricuspid Valve Regurgitation
This project depicts tricuspid regurgitation (TR). It is a fabric stitched heart with a frontal plane cross sectional view. It shows some of the gross anatomy of the human heart. This includes right and left atrium, right and left ventricle, interventricular septum, tricuspid valve, chordae tendineae, mitral valve, superior and …
Achalasia
Achalasia is a rare disorder that results from progressive destruction of the ganglion cells in the myenteric plexus esophageal wall. The distraction of the cell leads to the inability of the lower esophageal sphincter to relax and leads the loss of peristalsis of the distal esophagus. As a result there …
My own recreation of gut microbiome mapping representing spatial organization – by Olivia Kraska
Microbial mapping is where scientists take a swab of any area inside the body, most commonly it is done to our tongue and cheek, then adding fluorescent dye to that sample to tag all the diverse bacteria that exist within it. This is a painting I did to represent not …
