Artificial electrical stimulation of the nervous system is one of the foundations of neurotechnology. However‚ the use of electrical currents to stimulate the nervous system presents several challenges. It is difficult to achieve selective stimulation of only the targeted neurons without activating neighboring neurons. Further‚ electrochemical reactions at the electrode-tissue interface may lead to electrode dissolution or tissue damage. As an alternative‚ magnetic stimulation can be used to stimulate

Description This course is designed to expose you to the underlying physiological mechanisms of behavior. Physiological psychology is a complex but fascinating field of study. It explores the relationship between our biological systems and behavior. Structure and function of the nervous system from the neuron to the brain‚ as well as the interrelationships between the brain and such behaviors as eating‚ sleeping‚ learning‚ memory‚ emotion‚ and mental disorders will be discussed using examples from the behavior

Background The stress response in the body triggered by the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) contains two different chemicals – neurotransmitters and hormones. Neurotransmitters‚ specifically norepinephrine (NE)‚ are released into the postganglionic synapses of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) during flight or fight response. NE carries out its effects on a target cell by binding to and activating adrenergic receptors. NE is usually eliminated through the reuptake into presynaptic cells and enzymes

Anatomy of the Female Reproductive System The reproductive role of the female is far more complex than that of a male. Not only must she produce gametes‚ but her body must prepare to nurture a developing embryo for a period of approximately nine months. Ovaries‚ the female gonads‚ are the primary reproductive organs of a female‚ and like the male testes‚ ovaries serve a dual purpose: They produce the female gametes (ova) and sex hormones‚ the estrogens * and progesterone (pro-ges′tĕ-rōn). The

The Endocrine System Controls many body functions ~exerts control by releasing special chemical substances into the blood called hormones ~Hormones affect other endocrine glands or body systems Derives its name from the fact that various glands release hormones directly into the blood‚ which in turn transports the hormones to target tissues via ducts. Exocrine glands-transport their hormones to target tissues via ducts. Endocrine glands- secrete hormones into the bloodstream The Endocrine
