The way I remember amino acid side chains (part 1/2). Arg is missing an H.  

Everything you need to know about Increased Prolactin.  

It’s as essential to survival as food and drink, yet many of us struggle to get enough of it. So how do you know how much sleep is enough, and whether it’s good enough for you to reap the benefits? Can you get by with less? How can you get to sleep more easily – failing that, can you nap your way to success instead? In this guide to your unconscious hours, we answer the sleep questions keeping you up at night.  

Johannes Peter Müller (14 July 1801 – 28 April 1858) was a German physiologist, comparative anatomist, ichthyologist, and herpetologist, known not only for his discoveries but also for his ability to synthesize knowledge.  

The Advances in Coronary Physiology is the most comprehensive 5* rated course series providing the core background content required to develop a comprehensive understanding of the rationale and underlying meaning of physiological measurements widely used in the catheter laboratory.   

 

Your heart is a pump that is responsible for delivering blood to all parts of your body. Arteries carry oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to nourish the cells, and veins transport oxygen-poor blood on its way back to the heart and lungs.  

Warfarin is a medicine that helps keep your blood from clotting. This can lower your risk for a blood clot, stroke, or heart attack. But you must take import...  

A cis a small device that helps the heart beat normally. See how it’s put in the chest, and how it uses electrical signals to keep the heart on track.  

Ethology is the scientific and objective study of animal behaviour, usually with a focus on behaviour under natural conditions, and viewing behaviour as an evolutionarily adaptive trait.[1] Behaviourism is a term that also describes the scientific and objective study of animal behaviour, usually referring to measured responses to stimuli or trained behavioural responses in a laboratory context, without a particular emphasis on evolutionary adaptivity.[2] Many naturalists have studied aspects of animal behaviour throughout history. Ethology has its scientific roots in the work of Charles Darwin and of American and German ornithologists of the late 19th and early 20th century, including Charles O. Whitman, Oskar Heinroth, and Wallace Craig. The modern discipline of ethology is generally considered to have begun during the 1930s with the work of Dutch biologist Nikolaas Tinbergen and by Austrian biologists Konrad Lorenz and Karl von Frisch, joint awardees of the 1973 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.[3] Ethology is a combination of laboratory and field science, with a strong relation to some other disciplines such as neuroanatomy, ecology, and evolutionary biology. Ethologists are typically interested in a behavioural process rather than in a particular animal group, and often study one type of behaviour, such as aggression, in a number of unrelated animals.  

Frigatebirds spend weeks at a time flying over oceans in search for food -- here's how they sleep during this time.  

A review of hypernatremia, including physiology, etiologies, diagnostic work-up, and treatment. Particular focus given to diabetes insipidus.
