Are you one of my former #CCbirds, #CCphysio, #LMUphysio, or #SMLbirds students? How was my incorporation of Twitter into the course beneficial? What were the cons of the assignment? Suggested improvements?
I’m looking at you @KelARobs726 @schwenkab @BridgetKyh0s @jacquiesagaSTUD
#ccphysio Scientists identify a key mechanism regulating a protein required for muscle and heart function - Science Magazine https://t.co/x7HmczheSo
Grading the take home portion of the #ccphysio final while the students take the rest of the exam. So far their answers are looking pretty tight!
I get to take my little guy to work with me today. He will help me write the rest of the #ccphysio exam. 🤓 #CovinoTwins
Today is the first day of NOT the spring semester (it’s exam week).
To do: write, give, & grade the #ccphysio final, various meetings, & spring semester prep.
AND...
Updated status. Looks like I’ll have to figure out which question to provide. #ccphysio
If the #ccphysio students achieve a 90% response rate on the course evals by the end of the day, then I will post one of the exam questions ahead of time.
Current status:
If you hold your breath long, CO2 starts to build up in your blood and your body will eventually take over and induce fainting so you are in a horizontal position to distribute the O2 you are involuntarily inhaling #ccphysio
#CCphysio Tweets are due tomorrow. And the students are Tweeting up a storm to get those last ones in.
For everyone who has been following #CCphysio, this has been a super fun and effective way to talk about science. As we are getting ready for exams, make sure to eat well and hydrated. No one wants hypotonic cells!
When you overeat, you actually override the effectiveness of your Leptin hormone to have a satiating effect @me #everynight #CCPhysio
I am craving chicken wings but I just ate!! I wonder if grelin or leptin play a role in food cravings as well, and not just appetite in general 🤔#CCphysio
What an informative Blood Clotting presentation today! I learned that there are many factors involved in blood clotting, and I learned that there are 2 pathways in clotting: intrinsic and extrinsic #CCphysio
Mutations in the ob gene that codes for leptin and its receptor are partially responsible for Obesity! Poor Tubby cannot recognize the presence of leptin and is much bigger than his wild type friend! #CCphysio
Carbon dioxide is carried thru the blood in three forms:
1) carbonic acid
2) carbaminohemoglobin
3) as dissolved gas

@ClearyJohn521 Impossible! The optic nerve creates a blind spot since it cannot be infiltrated with photoreceptor cells, therefore creating way for the ganglion to pass through the retina to the brain #ccphysio
I cannot wait to go ice skating! Thank goodness we are endotherms and can generate our own heat internally. #CCphysio
I remember calculating partial pressures in GenChem... it took physiology to help me understand their important role in gas exchange in our own lungs! #CCphysio
