| This user is a student editor in Wikipedia:Wiki_Ed/Marquette_University/Neurobiology_(Spring_2016). Student assignments should always be carried out using a course page set up by the instructor. It is usually best to develop assignments in your sandbox. After evaluation, the additions may go on to become a Wikipedia article or be published in an existing article. |
I am a junior Physiological Sciences major at Marquette University. Currently I am enrolled in a Wiki Education project in my neurobiology class. For this project we are responsible for editing and improving a topic in neurobiology. I am from Leawood, Kansas which is part of the Kansas City Metropolitan Area, and grew up a big fan of the Kansas City Chiefs and Kansas City Royals. I am the president of the Sigma Chi Fraternity chapter at Marquette University and I enjoy volunteering with Big Brothers Big Sisters in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I hope to attend medical school after graduating from Marquette University
Outline for denervation Wikipedia article editing
· Definition and general context of denervation in the opening paragraph
o Causes
§ Procedures
· Nerve block
· Neurectomy - nerve lesioning for conditions such as hyperhidrosis, torticollis, or chronic pain. Procedures include:
· Sympathectomy
· Vagotomy
· Rhizotomy
§ Disorders
· [The study of denervation-reinnervation process in motor neuron disease and benign neuron disorders].
§ Trauma
· Skeletal muscle
o Potential anatomy of what denervation looks like in the neuron
