Today we were back in the house-lab, analyzing as many individuals as possible. We had a full day, working from 9am – 6pm! We, of our own volition, decided to stay more than a half hour later. We are the best students a professor could ask for. ☺ Us girls are, honestly, slightly anxious about finishing all of the analyses on time. We have a lot of individuals to get through.

Today we worked a half-day in the lab. What?! Working on a Saturday!? I know, but that’s how dedicated we all are. We decided to do some photo-ing of various pathologies (i.e. fractures, bone infections, etc) & do the Data Analysis of 2 individuals, just to get a bit ahead…we ended up doing 3 individuals! We just blew through them. We all have improved so much; everything is becoming second nature.
Arranging Bones anatomically? PuhLezzz. As easy as breathing
Siding bones? I could do it blindfolded.
Distinguishing perimortem vs. Postmortem fractures? No problem.
Identifying bone infections & diseases? Eazy peazy.
Personally, I’ve advanced from a 1 to a 10 as far as my bone knowledge is concerned. It’s exciting for me to realize how much more I know after only 3.5 weeks of doing this research. But, it’s exactly what I needed to do to become better- immerse myself in Osteology for 8hrs a day for 22 days.
