Thomas, M.D. It is you attempt to inform you, the web-surfer, about voice disorders from a physicians perspective. It is specifically not meant to establish a doctor patient relationship with you. I have an office in Oregon where patients who wish to be seen and establish a relationship may reach me. The information on this site represent my understanding of the voice and are primarily related to my study with other physicians, most particularly laryngologists. Journal references are provided where appropriate. This site has not been peer reviewed (like all web sites) as a medical journal would be. There is no advertising on the site. Please understand the contents of this site and probably most sites with medical information in this light.״This site includes:Anatomy: Photos and diagrams of the vocal cords and the parts with the medical terminologyPhotos: Photos of various medical problems of the vocal cords such as vocal nodules and polyps, bowing, paralysis, reflux and throat cancer.Video clips of vocal cords in motion: Quicktime videos of the vocal cords in motion. I hope you have a good internet connection.Audio recording of vocal pathology: Audio recordings of various types of spasmodic dysphonia.Case histories: Case histories of various disorders with photos/audio or videoVideo LecturesDefinitions, etc.Links to other resources http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=409775 Control of the Cell Cycle Game - What happens during ordinary cell division - mitosis? - What happens when a cell dies inside our body? - How does the body know when to make new cells? - What are the different phases in mitosis? - In what order does cell division occur and what ensures that nothing wrong happens? - How can a cancer tumour be formed? http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=422199 This website presents materials and results from NSF supported work on Diagnostic Question Clusters to Improve Student Reasoning and Understanding in General Biology Courses. The website provides access to the Diagnostic Question Clusters and active learning strategies associated with the questions plus the pedagogical and research context for these materials.We have targeted two challenges to the teaching of General Biology:1) Most students do not address biological questions with the principles? and reasoning used by biologists and2) Most faculty do not teach students how to use the principles and to think like practicing biologists. The project centers on a set of interrelated Diagnostic Question Clusters (DQCs) designed to "hook" biology faculty to question and learn about their students' understanding of core biological concepts and ways of thinking about biology.The DQCs we focus on here concern tracing energy and matter through 3 levels biological complexity (atomic/molecular/cellular, organism and ecosystem). http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=469255 A complete teachable unit to introduce students to bacteria and antibiotics and the evolution of antibiotic resistance. The unit includes active learning activities, assessments, grading rubrics, handouts, and class notes. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=548394 Human Body and mind has tons of interactive games that also provide explanations behind the scientific answers. The subjects the site covers are the body, mind, organs, muscles, skeleton, nervous, system, and puberty. Great site for quick or general student assessment on biological topics and concepts. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=714478 Em nosso objeto de aprendizagem serão utilizados os conteúdos que explicam a classificação do reinoanimal, partindo desde o reino até a espécie C.
