Stem cells

Stem cells are cells in the body that don’t yet have any role (undifferentiated or partially differentiated), and can change to become almost any cell type.

Can proliferate (divide to make more cells) indefinitely to make more of the same stem cells.

They are the earliest type of cell in a cell lineage (if a cell was an adult human, stem cells would be the foetus)

found in both embryonic and adult organisms, but they have slightly different properties in each

Can also be made in a lab by reprogramming other cells - resetting them back to stem cell stage.

In embryonic development (a baby forming in the womb), pluripotent stem cells develop at the blastocyst stage (3-4 days) and differentiate into all the cells of the human body as the foetus develops.

Stem cells do exist in the adult body, however they are not pluripotent - they are unipotent or multipotent - this means they can only differentiate into one or a few cell types respectively.

Adult stem cells 

Adult stem cells are found in a few select locations in the body, known as niches, such as:

the brain

bone marrow

blood and blood vessels

skeletal muscles

liver

gonads

They exist to replenish rapidly lost cell types and include hematopoietic stem cells, which replenish blood and immune cells, basal cells, which maintain the skin epithelium, and mesenchymal stem cells, which maintain bone, cartilage, muscle and fat cells. Adult stem cells are a small minority of cells.

I also gave up on my penmanship. As long as I can understand it, that's good enough.

took me this long to come to accept making ugly notes , no one in med school really has time to make pretty aesthetic notes

My friends and I recently had online group study sessions where we would open our cams and mostly study by ourselves. We would only talk to each other if we have questions or if we need to clarify something. My favorite thing about it is that it becomes easier and faster for us to quiz each other. I can't believe we didn't think of this earlier 🤦‍♀️.

What I finished today:

🌸 3 online lectures

🌸 reviewed patho

🌸 reviewed basic pharma (new topic)

🌸 basic pharma quiz (nailed it✨ i'm so happy~)

I finally got an actual study table! I am definitely the happiest potato today~

Today is the most productive I have been since classes started earlier this week. My brain was still in the denial stage for the first day, then I got sick the next day, then I had errands to run yesterday. Getting the table and seeing the growing list of readings i need to do really helped me get back in tune.

What I finished today:

🌸 3 online lectures

🌸 1 online lecture

🌸 reviewed pharma

Finals is upon me and I am numb. Since all I do is sleep lately, I'm going to try a different and a more proactive approach to force me to be more productive this week. I'm going to set up my goals ahead so I can cross them out throughout the day. This is what my bujo is for but I've been ignoring it for a while now. Posting them here is more fun apparently ✨~

Goals for today:

🌸 review basic pharma (exam)

🌸 neuroscience lecture

🌸 review microbiology lecture

🌸 finish microbio assignment

🌸 review pd notes

Still procrastinated a lot today. It's mostly because I fell asleep right after my morning routine and woke up around 11 AM. Luckily we didn't have class today. Coffee doesn't work that much for me anymore. Sometimes it does, but most of the time it's like flavored water I drink before going to sleep.

What I finished today:

❄️ reviewed two topics for basic pharma

❄️ reviewed/rewrote notes for microbiology

❄️ thesis stuff~

Still the same unproductive potato today. I recently rediscovered Naruto fanfiction and the urge to read them was too strong. I'd like to think I had my fill already not really but its finals season and i only need to survive two more weeks of this semester since I'm feeling a little satisfied. I already plotted my schedule for tomorrow so here's to hoping that nothing urgent comes up to distract me.

What I finished today:

❄️two online lectures

❄️ reviewed two topics for basic pharma

❄️ prequiz for psych class - this one did not go well
