HUBS1416 – PASS Topic 3 - Neurotransmitters, Receptors and Integration of Electrical Signals Welcome to PASS session 3! This is a relaxed, safe, mutual study environment. Feel free to bring lunch, snacks, coffee - whatever you need. 1 hour of PASS can be as productive as 3 hours of individual study time. There are no silly questions. If you’re unsure about something, ask! No judgment here. Sessions are voluntary and casual. Just come when you can. Please complete the sign in sheet each week that you attend. Feel free to email me if you have questions - [email protected] Let’s Revise! Name the autonomic neurotransmitters: 1. 2.

When should they be inhibited by? - Moro reflex - Stepping reflex - Rooting reflex - Babinski (plantar withdrawal) reflex - Grasping reflex Discuss the steps involved in synaptic transmission. What was an example that was given of how this process can be manipulated to achieve therapeutic effects? What are nociceptors? Identify the ways in which analgesia can be achieved: Study Tips! - HUBS isn’t a course that can be left to the last minute! Take a few minutes here and there throughout the week to quickly revise a concept, and you’ll retain the information much better. - Make use of online videos - YouTube, Khan Academy etc - for concepts you might be struggling with. Sometimes someone online might have a slightly different way of explaining something which will just “click” with you!
