Week 6

This weeks contribution to the project involved importing an image from a peer-reviewed article that is an overview of the developmental origin of the heart. This included using correct uploading, referencing and copyright practices. Additionally I began working on the Introduction to our page. Pericardial Development 4-6 Gestation weeks .jpg

Introduction

The cardiovascular system is the first system to develop and function in the human embryo, and at week four of prenatal development, the heart begins to beat. At the beginning of stage nine (middle of week three) we see the functional folding of the neural plate and development of the neural tube give rise to the differentiation of the germ layers into products that eventually form the fully functional embryonic heart. Advances in technology, ‘coupled with the use of suitable animal models’ has allowed the evolution of our understanding of embryological cardiac developmental, and allows us to observe how it has stemmed from the more “classical accounts”.

Week 5

This week, I mainly learnt how to use certain Wiki tools and commands to help format the group project closer to the submission date. This included importing pictures, adding in internal references and references to sites such as PubMed.
