Your humor and humility is refreshing!

MEDA 55 fall 2020. This was very informative. As a mother of a young baby, I found this quite educational. I didn’t know many of the things you mentioned.

I really like how you make these videos humorous. It gives us incentives to watch them because they’re entertaining and educational!

i never really understood the hormone oxytocin until this video. This helped me understand how the hormone is secreted into different directions.

I liked that you explained what positive feedback was and used examples to understand how it works to activate a response.

This video was very efficient at showing how oxytocin is used and where its made and stored.

You simplified three examples of increased oxytocin very nicely in this video!

You are very thorough in your videos. You seem to make sure to explain each term and not jump into the next thing too quickly. When you mentioned how oxytocin is regulated on a positive feedback you made sure to explain what positive feedback was. I know some professors teach the same thing all the time and might just brush it off like anyone knows what they are talking about, but it's little things like that that can be extremely helpful--even if it is a simple concept like positive feedback. That way students don't have to spend much more time googling certain things they didn't understand.

In class you had explained what oxytocin was and when it is secreted, but here you helped give a more in-depth breakdown of other important functions it serves, crazy how many functions and responses it is responsible for

I really like the first review part of the video. Thanks for explaining oxytocin specifically. A lot useful information to know.

I really appreciate that you explain things as a refresher and do not just brush it off as most would thinking that we automatically know what is going on. It was great to hear some of the information over again and hear clinical correlations where this would apply. I also appreciate the fact that you incorporate humor in most of you videos, it makes them not only a great resource to refer to, but also very entertaining to watch.

Personal stories may be odd to share at times, but I find that they help me remember topics - weird associations bring the information to mind faster for me. Great video!

Drawing always helps me visualize which hormones are in which pituitary gland and this gave me more in depth information about oxytocin. I like this video because it focuses on one hormone!

This video is really helpful even though it is a repeat of class information it helps to be able to hear it over again and be able to pause if we need to take notes.

This was such a helpful video. It made me realize how crucial oxytocin is to the human body and all of the different pathways it helps stimulate.

This hormone is so important, so thank you for dedicating a video to it! Now I truly understand the roles of oxytocin, and how it is controlled by positive feedback.

This video really helped me understand oxytocin more

I didn’t know synthetic oxytocin was pumped through an IV to help uterine contractions. This video really helped me understand the response of oxytocin

I find your use or arrows to explain the steps of systems of reactions to be very helpful. Instead of having to write a whole paragraph, we only have to write a line explaining the same exact thing

Liked that you explained it was a positive feedback loop and gave several examples

I really like the lab videos they go really in depth beyond what we learn in class! It’s easier to understand when I can pause it and go back!

i always get mixed up with the anterior and posterior, but this video really helped clear up the confusion!

YOU ARE AWESOME! I mean YOU ARE THE AWESOMENESS ITSELF. Thank you so much.

Once again I enjoyed the use of the flow charts that explained how oxytocin works in each of these functions.

This really made me grasp the idea of oxytocins functions and why it's​ a positive feedback loop.

Thanks! Again it really helps when you write out a chart so we can see all the possibilities. For example, when you put milk ejection and uterine contraction.

I appreciate that you made a video specifically on oxytocin so we could learn more of the in depth details of its importance.

I loved this video and how in depth you went into oxytocin!

This video was helpful in better understanding the role and function of Oxytocin. The examples you used were also helpful in explaining the role of oxytocin. I also liked the diagrams and flow charts you used to explain the different examples mentioned. These visuals were easy to follow.

I love that you did a video on just oxytocin because I feel like this hormone is super important in many bodily functions yet it can get confusing. Thanks!

This video was very helpful. I like how you went in detail when it came to explaining the function of oxytocin.

Good examples, they help a lot.

this video was really interesting to learn the different things oxytocin has affect on

Thanks for this video.

This video was helpful and I liked the examples used.

By the time I was gone studying for Exam 1 I had the diagram from this video and lecture embedded in my brain. It was really helpful and applied to a lot of the chapters!

Good understand on Posterior. Very helpful.

MEDA 55 Fall 2020. Thank you for the video! It was a fun video to watch

Really helped me understand how much oxytocin does!

After lectures and this video, I have remembered what it was, where it comes from and what it's purpose is : THE LOVE HORMONE !!

Great examples! These videos help so much.Thanks again! :)

Haha great examples. The different colored pens help with distinguishing contrasting concepts.

Thanks! Very helpful ☺️

I like how you broken down each example and explained what occurs when the stimulus is no longer present.

I remembered first learning about positive feedback last semester and I liked how the functions of oxytocin connected the information to now. I remember the "synthetic oxytocin injector" explanation from lab, too.

It was very helpful to review and study about functions of oxytocin for midterm exam! i was able to understand what oxytocin does with this video.

Great lecture, and enjoyed the use of diagrams.

I appreciate your explanation of the various functions of oxytocin, especially the feedback loop. I would like to know more about the specific tissues that are acted upon by the hormone. Thanks!

This was a great way of explaining the functions of Oxytocin. It was incredibly easy to see how oxytocin can affect the in these 3 way body when it is produced.

This was really helpful in explaining the functions of oxytocin.

I really liked this video! I think that Oxytocin is pretty interesting and I was actually able to use this video as a source of knowledge for my anthropology class paper. Thank you

This video was interesting, because I didn't know it was the hormone for love before I watched. Good explanation.

This video was very clear and easy to understand! It helped explain the different functions that oxytocin has and will be very helpful for the next exam!

Thanks examples provided help to understand how works, the diagrams in your videos help in further understanding of the concept, your explanations and examples give extensive correlations to the topic, its not to fast perfect timing to stop and write as needed or even continue to listen but still have the ability to take conceptual notes

MEDA 110 Summer 2020: Funny and informative. As a good straight CIS gender male, I had no idea how oxytocin worked in pregnancies. Now I do!

Love the comment about those who want ti deliver naturally! THANk youuuu BIO 327

Bio 327 Fall 2019: I wish that these were brought to our attention for the beginning of our class. I think I would have understood the material better. I think the combination of these videos and the PowerPoints would be super helpful.

This video made me reflect on positive feedback loops differently. It is strange to think that there are instances in which the human body prefers to deviate from homeostasis or maintaining ideal normal values.

BIOL327 Fall 2019: It was interesting learning and hearing a more in depth description of what's going on biologically to a woman's body when breastfeeding (milk ejection) and giving birth (uterine contraction) in comparison to what my midwife told me prior to and after giving birth to my son.

I was really surprised by the number of functions oxytocin has to prepare the woman for childbirth and also how it functions as the love hormone. I always wondered why women were attached to I.Vs since some women also do home deliveries. However, it makes sense to have synthetic oxytocin going through the body in order to help stimulate contractions. Thank you!

Oxytocin, from what I remember, is milk ejection, assists during labor, and is the love hormone.

I have not learned anything about diabetes insipidus before this class. Good to know.

Since oxytocin is considered a "love bonding hormone", does it help decrease postpartum depression? Great video! I like how you explain the different ways oxytocin can be secreted.

Very instructive video. What do you think of the assumptions of certain people having too much oxytocin or too little oxytocin?

This lecture explained very well how oxytocin is used in different instances in the body. It seems oxytocin is released more in women because it is released from the posterior pituitary during milk ejection and uterine contraction. The drawings helped me understand how the hormone is released from stimulation. BIOL 327 43445 Fall 2019

Since oxytocin mainly affects childbirth and nurturing a child, what is its role in males? Are there higher levels of oxytocin in women than men due to its function? Great video once again!

I thought the examples of how oxytocin is created was interesting and easy to understand. It's disappointing to learn how doctors give artificial oxytocin to women who are in labor when in fact they probably don't need it because our bodies produce it naturally.

😂😂😂😂new patient

Instead of planning on an IV during labor, take prenatal yoga classes and learn to breathe and promote a healthy birth!!!
