Lab Rats-Anatomy and Physiology Review

By Lab Rats-Anatomy and Physiolog

**NOT MEDICAL ADVICE**
Anatomy and Physiology topics explained in 10-20 min. This podcast can be used as review, lecture prep (at the 200ish level), or recreational learning. Episodes are based on areas of peak confusion, and questions asked by lab students in the 211 lab that I assist in.

Cover art is a drawing by your host, Frances Cronin.
