--Mark Hill (talk) 09:57, 24 September 2014 (EST) Individual student data for each group has also been analysed. |
--Mark Hill (talk) 09:57, 24 September 2014 (EST) I have masked student ID.

Group Project Topic - Endocrine
--Z3414648 (talk) 11:17, 20 August 2014 (EST) We have chosen our group project to be on the endocrine system.
--Z3418702 (talk) 13:07, 20 August 2014 (EST) We have decided to allocate 2 topics (endocrine organs) to each group member. We will go and research each and look for research articles and then figure out the best way to structure the content.
--Z3414648 (talk) 12:19, 26 August 2014 (EST) This is a draft allocation for research topics for our project. Janaki - Pineal, Hypothalamus. Ali (z3414648)- Pituitary, thyroid. Samrah (z3418837) - parathyroid, thymus, pancreas. Ruth - Adrenal, gonad, placenta. Samrah and Ruth if there is heaps to do on those three parts that i've allocated just let Janaki and I know and we can also help out. If anyones topics are sparse on info also let us know and we can reshuffle the allocations
--Z3418698 (talk) 22:02, 26 August 2014 (EST) Hey guys, I was thinking we should maybe have a heading 'Recent findings' for maybe a few of the topics and have a short, brief summary of any new developments. I think it would be really interesting!
--Z3418702 (talk) 00:00, 27 August 2014 (EST) That's a good idea, should we put a separate section on recent findings, or just some information on recent findings under each section? Also we need historical findings
--Z3418837 (talk) 00:44, 27 August 2014 (EST)Hey guys, it's better to post student numbers to the parts allocated to each group member so it's easier for the tutor to mark. I would do this but i'm not sure about who is who :P Also I like the idea of recent findings. I think it's also better to post articles related to the recent findings and abnormalities as we go along as this will make it easier instead of leaving it to the end. For now, I think we should just post up as many articles related to each topic as possible and then figure out how to structure the content.
--Z3414648 (talk) 21:22, 2 September 2014 (EST) Hey guys, I've done some research on the prenatal development of the thyroid gland so I'll add that to my section. We can always change it up later.
I also found this review article that goes into a lot of detail about the pituitary gland. It explains the cellular differentiation involved to create the cells responsible for manufacturing hormones like ACTH. There is a lot of complex gene involvement but I was thinking we could condense a lot of the information into a table. I suggest you guys do that for your organs too rather than having a lot of jargon on our page that only an advanced biochemist will understand.

--Z3414648 (talk) 10:09, 9 September 2014 (EST) Hey i found a great article on normal and abnormal thyroid development and it's given me a lot of great information for the timeline part. <pubmed>10.1016/j.beem.2013.08.005</pubmed>
--Z3418698 (talk) 12:44, 10 September 2014 (EST)We are going to incorporate the Timeline and Abnormalities under each individual sub heading rather than at the end of the page. We are also going to find image links and post them in the discussion page before uploading them. We are also going to tabulate the hormones released by the glands under the subheadings. This will summarise the function of the glands in the embryo and how they contribute to fetal development.
--Z3418702 (talk) 00:46, 17 September 2014 (EST) Hi guys, I've added some info about adrenal development through gestation, at this stage some simple dot points which will probably be expanded upon later. There is a lot of content about the cell morphology at different weeks but I'm not sure as yet whether it's necessary to include that level of detail?
--Z3414648 (talk) 12:59, 17 September 2014 (EST) Hey guys, i found this link for an image that i'm thinking of using on the project. It's from PLOSone which is good because it's free to use those images. This is the link for it: http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0016752
--Z3418698 (talk) 13:06, 17 September 2014 (EST) Hey guys, I found this image I wanted to use for hypothalamus development in a rodent, it basically illustrates the different nuclei in the hypothalamus once it it fully developed but I will be focusing on those that are present during development and the role of hormones each of them releases. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2082685/figure/fig1/
--Z3418702 (talk) 23:50, 23 September 2014 (EST)--Z3418702 (talk) 23:50, 23 September 2014 (EST) Hi guys, I think I might use this image (figure 3), it's from the PLoS so totally fine to re-use and shows the fetal adrenal gland using 3 different techniques, like MRI, gross imaging and histological stain. I like it because it shows the gand from 2 different perspectives. I'll upload it soon but here's the link: http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0075511
