In this video Paul Andersen explains the basic anatomy of a neuron; including the dendrites, cell body, axon hillock, axon, and axon terminal. He also describes how neurons are classified both structurally and functionally.

In this video, Jonathan from the Institute of Human Anatomy discusses what causes herpes, how you contract it, why you can never get rid of it, and potential treatment options for herpes outbreaks.

In this video we cover what the nervous system is, how it relies on nerve cells and synapses, and what a reflex arc is.

This video provides an introduction to the nervous system and its key features. The speaker explains the role of the nervous system in allowing communication throughout the body using electrical impulses, and discusses the central...

Students will learn the three main types of neurons and how they travel through the body's nerve network. Diagrams explain how information is received using our sensory organs and then processed by the central and peripheral nervous...

In this video, we explore the active ingredient in hot peppers, capsaicin, and discuss its biosynthesis, mechanisms, & metabolism.

This tutorial covers the basics of spinal cord white matter.

This tutorial briefly covers CN V (trigeminal nerve).

The video is a lesson on reflex arcs and the function of reflex actions in the nervous system. Using a hot pan as an example, the video describes how pain receptors in the skin detect a stimulus, which triggers a series of neuronal...

The video provides an overview of the nervous system, explaining what it is, how it works, and its different components. The narrator describes the function and role of sensory receptors, neurons (sensory, relay, and motor), and...

In this video, we explore the theory, use, and parameters with TENS and IFC, two E-Stim modalities used in pain control. Also, we discuss the two relevant theories of pain modulation: gate control and endogenous opioid theories.

In this video, we explore the two major pain modulation mechanisms in TENS and IFC: gate control and endogenous opioid theories.

In this video, my wife helps me to demonstrate how reflexes work at the level of the neurons. We look at both the Knee jerk and eye blink reflexes and the mechanism underlying both.

In this video, we will discuss the anatomy and function of the withdrawal reflex.

The video provides an explanation of the nervous system, its components, and how they work together. The video explains how a stimulus is detected, converted into an electrical impulse, and travels along a sensory neuron to the CNS,...

This video is an educational lesson on reflex arcs within the nervous system. The narrator explains what reflex arcs are and how they work. Through the example of touching a hot pan, the video demonstrates the different stages of a...

In this video, we explore the structure, physiology, and implications of the muscle spindle reflex arc, which is intertwined with the stretch reflex.

There are 3 different types of neuron, or nerve cell; the sensory neuron which detects the signal, the relay or intermediate neuron, and the motor neurons which trigger the response. We will also look at how synapses work; transmitting...

This video serves as an educational lesson on the peripheral nervous system (PNS). It covers the structure of the PNS, including its major subdivisions - sensory neurons and motor neurons.
