So it's been a while since my last post. It's test week, so I'm not going to take the time right now to fill you in on everything, but here's a little glimpse into what I've been doing today.
 |
| Facial nerve (cranial nerve 7) branches starting in the brain and going to their respective locations. Also, there's a bit of trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve 5) thrown in there. |
 |
| This is the path of the glossopharyngeal nerve (cranial nerve 9). It seems less scary than the facial nerve because there are fewer branches; however, it still has motor, general sensory, parasympathetic and sympathetic fibers throughout its course. |
 |
| Pterygopalatine ganglion. One of my least favorite ganglia (collection of nerve cell bodies outside the Central Nervous System). |
Welp, that's basically what I've been doing with my life. Tonight we also had a practice practical to prepare us for this weekend's exam. I didn't do so well tonight, so I'll be spending more time in the lab tomorrow! Look for a longer post sometime this weekend when I will have more than a few minutes to spare for blog writing.
