Making neurotransmission come to life! 🫧🧠

Who says learning about neurotransmitters has to stay inside the textbook? Our nursing students got up, moved around, and brought neuropharmacology to life with a hands-on “bubble” demonstration!

Students used:
🫧 Soap bubbles = neurotransmitters (serotonin)
🥢 Pool noodles = SSRIs & MAO-Is
🏓 Pickleball paddles = receptors
🦋 Butterfly nets = reuptake
🦈 Shark head grabbers = monoamine oxidase

By watching the number of “neurotransmitter” bubbles fluctuate, students could visualize how neurotransmission works and how medications can impact the process. Plus, getting up and moving was the perfect way to beat that post-lunch 3 p.m. slump! 😴➡️🧠✨

✨ Meet the inaugural cohort of Belmont University’s Master’s Entry to the Practice of Nursing (MEPN) program!

Last week, these future nurses began their journey by reflecting on the values, virtues, and ethical foundations of the profession while exploring the question, “What is a nurse?” Through powerful stories, meaningful conversations, and moments that moved many of us to tears, they gained a deeper understanding of the calling they are entering.

The week concluded with a white coat fitting, a special milestone that reinforced their sense of pride, purpose, and belonging within the nursing profession. Seeing their excitement and anticipation for the journey ahead was truly inspiring.

Please join us in welcoming our newest Bruin Nurses! 💙🩺

✨ Student Spotlight ✨
Meet transfer nursing student, Karol Hernandez!

💭 My first year of nursing school has been a rollercoaster—it’s been challenging, but very rewarding. nursing school so far has taught me perseverance and resilience.

There’s been multiple times where I’ve second guessed myself and have wondered if this path is truly for me. Though those challenges have been hard they have helped me grow stronger and continue moving forward. Although I’ve second guessed myself at times, each clinical experience I’ve had has reassured me of my passion for nursing and my desire to give back to the community.

Big shoutout to my instructors and staff who make my nursing journey go smoother with their guidance and support. I’m excited to continue to learn and grow in my nursing journey :).
