In this video, we explore the muscles that facilitate hip flexion and the origins, insertions, actions, and innervation of the iliopsoas.

In this video, we discuss hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, the mechanism by which a heart enlarges in response to chronically elevated afterload and high blood pressure.

It turns out that warm-blooded animals aren’t warm all of the time! Researchers at Brown University studying the muscles in bats’ wings found that their wings operate at a significantly lower temperature than their bodies, especially...

The species of Goby fish, Sicyopterus stimpsoni, also known as the ""Inching climber,"" thrives in the waters off Hawaii, and the amazing physical feat it must perform to survive is no fish tale! To reach the safe haven of its freshwater...

KINE 3135: Physical Concepts in Biomechanics

WARNING: THIS VIDEO HAS SCENES WITH FLASHING LIGHTS. The tiny BioBots engineered at one NSF-funded Science and Technology Center (STC) move a bit like inchworms, but they represent giant strides in science and engineering. They can be...

This is the first part of the first torque problem about the elbow joint in which we calculate the force due to the elbow flexors (biceps brachii) and the mechanical advantage of the elbow.

In this video, we discuss two movements of the scapula: elevation and depression. We will see the muscles of these movements, their origins, insertions, and actions.

This tutorial teaches the muscles comprising the posterior compartment of the leg.

This is a brief video tutorial on the anatomy of the eye.

An Israeli company claims to have invented the world’s first realistic, 3D-printed steak made from non-meat products.

In this video, we explore the functions of Golgi Tendon Organs [GTOs] in...<br/>
[1] submaximal exercise, normal movement, and pro<br/>prioception
[2] maximal force production & injury <br/>prevention [reflexive]

In this video, we will explore the physiological events in the cardiomyocyte that occur during the cardiac action potential. What occurs during each phase of the action potential?<br/>

In this video, we discuss the anatomy [O, I, A, N] and non-contractile functions of the often-ignored subclavius.

In this video, we explore special tests used to rule-up a tear of the infraspinatus and teres minor. Specifically, we will briefly review the infraspinatus and teres minor, demonstrate common special tests used for diagnosis, and explore...

Exercise Physiology | mTORC1 and Muscle Protein Synthesis

In this video, we explore the basic biochemical mechanism of neuronal death in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or ALS.

In this video, we discuss the muscles of the lateral leg compartment. More specifically, the anatomy, origins, insertion, innervation, blood supply, and actions.

This tutorial briefly covers CN III (oculomotor nerve), CN IV (trochlear nerve) and CN VI (abducens nerve).

It should have been your GCSE PE paper 1 today so why not do a quiz and see how you would have done??

Muscle Physiology 2: Voltage-Gated Potassium Channels and the Action Potential

In this video, we will discuss the events of Excitation-Contraction Coupling from the motor neuron action potential to release of Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). **Part 2 Coming Soon

A tutorial of the muscles that comprise the anterior thigh compartment, primarily focusing on the quadriceps femoris muscles (quads for short).

In this video, the teacher debunks common myths about what happens to the human body after death. Through dissections and explanations of anatomy and physiology, the teacher explains why hair and nails don't continue to grow after death...
