The Weekly Physiology Challenge Kicks Off Today!

Today is the first of many Wednesdays that offer students the chance to take part in our Weekly Physiology Challenge (WPC). Students are now able to pop by on Wednesday mornings to collect points by answering questions related to physiology. We are excited to get this new challenge going and to watch students climb the leaderboard over the course of this semester!

Here are the rules to play:

• There are 5 categories of questions: Homeostasis, Information Flow, Metabolism, Pathophysiology, & Structure-Function Relationships.
• Each category has 5 questions, each with an increasing level of difficulty.
• Participants fill in their information on a scorecard that is kept in my office.
• Participants my select one question each week from any category and at any difficulty, but may only answer that question once this semester.
• A correct answer earns the participant points and a stamp on their scorecard.
• An incorrect answer earns the participant nothing but sadness (and an “X” on their scorecard).
• Participants can play every week between now and the end of the semester.
• Participants do not need to have had physiology (or to be taking physiology) to play. This is open to anyone who wants to give it a try!
