This is an overview of endocrine system physiology. I completely forgot to mention, my apologies, that steroid hormones are also slower in eliciting a cellular response than peptide hormones. Steroid hormone responses include transcription and translation and then a physiologic response while peptide hormones activate inactive secondary messengers that interact with enzymes that are already within the cystol.

Medical Opportunity over Spring Break

Global Medical Brigades is a not-for-profit national organization that has chapters at universities throughout the United States. This spring break (March 10-18, 2012), our University of Arizona club will be traveling to Honduras to provide free medical care to under-served communities living in rural areas. This is a great opportunity for all interested students looking to get hands-on medical experience.

Last year, the 27 undergraduate members of our club were able to help 600+ underprivileged individuals; this year, we are looking to exceed these numbers.

We are holding two informational meetings on September 29th at 8:45 pm in the Agave Room and October 4th at 7:45 pm in the Copper Room of the Student Union for those who are interested and want more information. If you can't attend either of these meetings (or have any questions) please email us at gmbhonduras.ua@gmail.com and we will personally answer your questions at a more convenient time.

More information about the Brigade can be found at the organization's official website: http://www.globalbrigades.org/?page_id=925

Thanks and hope to see you at the meeting!
