T Brain Bee Contest: A Short Story

I have always been a firm believer in self-exploration and diversification. Though I started my medical career in Pakistan, I moved to US to learn and experience the medical distinction. I started appreciating the value of evidence-based medicine and best practice guidelines in the western medicine. I always desired to be a critical care physician. I got chance to learn and experience Neurocritical Care for the first time at UNM. This experience facilitated my special interest in Neuroscience. Recently, I completed my basic training in Neurology and am one step closer to my fundamental goal of getting the best available training in Neurocritical

From this club I’ve learned people assemble and assisting each other on a project, can be very refreshing. Our club works together, getting certain things accomplished. However; all of us learn the same thing at the same time. I’ve also learned you don’t have to be rewarded for every good thing you do in life, sometimes the most rewarding things are just doing it in the first place. And I participating in theaters and know that I am a helpful person when it comes to helping people remembering their lines. And also I worked at the church café and learned my leadership skills there as well I have also applied it everywhere I go.

The mission of the Neuroscience Service Line is “to provide excellent comprehensive and innovative patient care and access for all Neurological and Spinal Disorders.” The Vision is “to be the premier Neuroscience Center in the Southeast and nation leader in innovative Neurological and Neurosurgical care with global recognition and timely access.” The NSICU offers innovative, comprehensive care for patients with neurological disorders while advancing treatment and mechanisms of neurological diseases, disorders, and injuries of the brain and spinal cord. An integrative approach is used that combines multiple clinical disciplines and extensive research to provide the best possible, evidence-based, health care. Tim Porter-O’Grady mentions, "not only must we close the door on the old models of health delivery and clinical work, but they must turn around and face the future, viewing the entire landscape to develop a workable vision", (Porter-O’Grady & Malloch, 2015, p. 11) this concept is evident at

Professional Organization Tanya Askif St. Petersburg College August 26, 2015 NUR 3805 American Association of Neuroscience Nurses The American Association of Neuroscience Nurses is a codependent unit whose members endeavor toward a common purpose of achieving stated goals (Cook, 2016).

Chapter Two The beginning of the chapter two included a section that discussed the dilemma of trying to introduce what is learned in the classroom in the work place. I recently just experience the difficultly of trying to utilize material I am currently learning in my EDPH 502 Individual Learning Differences course, at my fieldwork site. I tried to give feedback to my supervisor of how to improve the Puente program and was given a practical response of the program lacking the resources and a full time staff to monitor sections of the program can be improved at the moment. Collaboration was another topic in Chapter two that connected to me at my current employment as a Student Program Advisor for the USC Trio Educational Talent Search (ETS) Program. Ardoin (2014) mentions how an individual has to be patient when searching for a collaborative project. At the moment I am working on assignments that were given to me, but it was only a few months ago that I was asked to collaborate with other colleagues of mine on a project. The inclusion of being asked to assist with a group project allowed my opinion matter and

The process to enter this group starts with getting access to the Center for Neuroscience building. The door is always locked and only members of the community have access, granted by the PIs, to enter. This observation reveals how selective the community is. Once inside, the building resembled a maze with identical walls decorated with posters. The 40” by 60” posters are an example of a genre employed by this community (Artifact 1). Every wall is covered in colorful posters with published scientific work from members of the community. As I walked to Dr. Gray’s office, the posters in the perimeter only had work from his laboratory. The same trend appeared for other labs. This suggests that the laboratories have designated spaces where they can highlight their contribution to the overall goals of the CN. The posters serve as a method of communication among the members since they can easily read each other’s works and provide

Some may argue that writing is not the only way to help others, there is no denying that there are other possibilities like group therapy but writing is still an avenue that can be taken towards the betterment of an individual. For example, Judy Willis, author of “Writing and

The brain is one of the most fascinating organs of the body because it is the control center of the body. In 2009 my older sister suffered from a brain hemorrhage and I was shocked to see her hooked up to so many machines. However, it is a miracle that she has recovered almost 100 percent and from then on, I developed a passion for learning more about the brain. By attending SNP, I hope to gain insight on the decision making process and exactly what occurs in the brain that makes each of us who we are. In addition, the program will widen my perspective on neuroscience and allow me to learn more that will set me on a more focused path to achieve my goal of becoming a medical professional in the future. I believe that SNP will not only provide

This past year, I have been apart of Naperville Central’s brand new Special Spaces club. When my friend approached me and asked me to join, I agreed even though I had no clue what I was involving myself in. In retrospective, I can honestly say that becoming a part of Special Spaces has been one of the most meaningful, fun, and fulfilling experiences I have had in high school.

My inclination for the sciences started to be evident during my first years of high school; however, the dreams of being a “scientist” seem far from being reached when growing up in a third world country. When I came to the United States, I faced not only a whole new

Collaboration is often first learn with friends (e.g. a sandbox), within the classroom (e.g. team projects). Emily Eldrige also goes on to share her life story, and her tendency not wanting to work in groups. Collaboration, by society standards, is seen as a natural skill, that everyone possess. When student

Pre-Experience Journal Entry For my twelfth grade Senior Capstone project, I am choosing to do my internship in the field of neurology and neuroscience, with an additional focus on medication and therapy for neurodegenerative diseases. My initial interest in this topic is admittedly quite embarrassing; while flipping through channels one night, I found myself mildly piqued by the (heavily glamorized) TV show Criminal Minds and soon I was following the series religiously and developed an interest in “psychology”. I was able to gain more understanding of this topic when I attended the Duke TIP program the summer before my ninth grade year, delving briefly into criminal psychology and the law. I then spent the rest of that summer volunteering

If a student’s teamwork is increased towards their education they can develop social skills, work together as a team, help others improve their skills, and take responsibility for their own learning. In the article, “Physically educated students learn the importance of being active, learn how to be active, and value such a lifestyle.” “They are students who become knowledgeable physical activity participants and spectators, practice the meaning of teamwork, and are provided the tools to become active, healthy adults” http://educationdocbox.com/Special_Education/66908939-Can-academic-success-come-from-five-minutes-of-physical-activity.html. Physical education has always been known for its quality in developing teamwork, leadership and communication skills in young people. Elementary physical education is often children’s first formal experience with movement instruction and it is a time where they begin building a foundation of motor skills for later participation in sport and other physical activities. When students within a team are able to work well together they accomplish more the individuals can do alone. In the article, “Movement is a an indispensable part of learning and

Learning is social, in studios you gain more and grow more when working with members of your team; at times more than a student will in an entire term in college. This type of collaboration must be a part of he current classroom climate. It must be .
