One of the things I love about the UC Davis program is the broad experience of the students. Nurses, EMTs, lab techs, radiology techs, therapists, corpsmen, you name it. And the faculty aren’t afraid draw from the students to teach. Here, my classmate and co-blogger Gabe shares his sports physiology expertise with the class. He’s teaching a mnemonic that helps you remember the level on the spinal column where nerve branches for basic upper body motions originate. Pretend you’re a basketball player about to take a free throw. Now watch the clip.

So although I’m a big fan of our little basketball trick… as I too was a piece of that creation at SDSU… This was brought to my attention and I thought it too was worth sharing as it incorporates the dermatomes.. Haha The dance is a little more intense and not nearly as easy to remember, but its definitely worth the study break 🙂
