Osteoporosis

The effects of cannabis on the human system
My project focused on the effects of marijuana on the human body. I decided to do something I am not the best at and draw one image representing the changes in a brain of one person who abuses the drug, and a non cannabis user. The next picture was a …
Cancer Mutations and Mitosis
For my steam project, I decided to do the stages of mitosis and how cancer effects the mitosis stage. Within the mitosis stage there can be multiple mutations within the cell. Here in my painting I’m showing the difference between a normal cell division process and a cancerous cell division …
Smoking Damage to Tissue
For my STEAM project I sewed models of human lungs. One healthy model and one of lungs damaged by smoking. The healthy pair of lungs is made of a soft felt, mimicking the ease at which healthy lungs move in the body. They are also larger and more regular in …
Metal Skull Painting

The skull I painted was supposed to show the strength that both bones and metal have. Protection and movement …
Antiresorptive Agents for Osteoporosis
https://media.uaf.edu/media/t/
My project is about osteoporosis management through antiresorptive agents, or drugs, that are prescribed to slow osteoclast resorption. I illustrated four stages of osteoporosis, featuring osteoclast and osteoblast involvement. The osteoclast are the large multinuclear cells with the ruffled edges and the osteoclast are the smaller unicellular ones. They are working on trabecular bone. They are such cute little cells, that I had to turn them into a lantern. 
CNS and PNS, “telephone”
I decided to create a drawing, likening the CNS and PNS to an old school telephone operating system. I used the spinal cord as the switchboard of the telephone system. The operator is the brain. Then there are wires, like telephone lines down the street, that are the PNS. They take the message that the CNS specifically meant for the toes down to the toes. Or the message that was meant for the arms, to the arms.
Psoriasis
See Image I decided to do my project on Psoriasis, and for my abstract, I decided to make a physical model of skin with psoriasis and normal skin. Starting from the bottom, the subcutaneous tissue is made of a stale, very dry brownie. The dermis is made up of frozen …
