I am a junior Physiological Sciences major at Marquette University. Currently I am enrolled in a Wiki Education project in my neurobiology class. For this project we are responsible for editing and improving a topic in neurobiology. I am from Leawood, Kansas which is part of the Kansas City Metropolitan Area, and grew up a big fan of the Kansas City Chiefs and Kansas City Royals. I am the president of the Sigma Chi Fraternity chapter at Marquette University and I enjoy volunteering with Big Brothers Big Sisters in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I hope to attend medical school after graduating from Marquette University

o   Potential anatomy of what denervation looks like in the neuron
