When first putting together the factors involved in making a diagnosis from a medical case study, a good place to start is making a set of general observations about the patient. These observations include the patient’s history, set of symptoms, general appearance and behavior, and information gathered about their medical condition. This assignment will give you practice making observations about the case study provided on myocardial infarction and further your understanding of coronary heart disease.

To understand how life works, you need to watch it in action, says bioimaging scientist Gokul Upadhyayula. Taking us down to the cellular level, he shares the work behind cutting-edge microscopes that capture and record, in three dimensions, the complex behaviors of living organisms — from infecting cancer cells to crawling immune cells — and what they’re revealing about the dynamics of biology. Watch life unfold before your eyes with the incredible visuals in this talk.
