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. 
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.
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 …
The objective of this project is to show the differences between the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton system and how they work well together. The ropes are not to show a literal representation of the axial or appendicular skeletal system, rather how they rely upon one another to function. …
I created the knee joint using material, I either had, or created. The bones has been made out of modeling clay, which was shaped to form the bones that comprise the knee; patella, femur, tibia, fibula. To show the meniscus, there are small plates created out of hot glue with …
I decided to do my project on trigeminal neuralgia and to discuss the background of the trigeminal nerve as one of the 12 cranial nerves and its relation to the peripheral nervous system. I talked about the symptoms, causes, and treatments of this disorder in detail. I’m not super artistic …
This is showing the structures of the lower respiratory system. It relates to my essay which discusses some of the toxins found in most types of smoke and the damage they can do to different tissues in the respiratory system. \
Using the art of special effects make-up called moulage we are going to explore the four different tissue types and the importance of physical authenticity in replication for training. This project uses the Unit 5 case study Shark Attack! as a foundation.
I made my STEAM project about osteoporosis because I enjoyed learning about the disease. The woman in the beginning is drinking milk, but she hasn’t been having enough calcium as seen by the Ca++ tanks on the second page. This causes the osteoclasts to break down more bone than they’re supposed to. This leads the personified osteoblast at the end of the comic to be surprised that they’ll be unable to keep up with the osteoclasts’ activity.
My STEAM project was on the CNS and the PNS. I choose to use pipe cleaner because I wanted to show a blown up picture of the nervous system to get a better understanding of it. I decided to do the nervous system because this was the hardest section for …
