First-year medical students prefer multiple learning styles.

Heidi L. Lujan, Stephen E DiCarlo
Advances in physiology education
2006

Students have preferences for the ways in which they receive information. The visual, auditory, reading/writing, kinesthetic (VARK) questionnaire identifies student's preferences for particular modes… (More)

Gender differences in learning style preferences among undergraduate physiology students.

Erica A. Wehrwein, Heidi L. Lujan, Stephen E DiCarlo
Advances in physiology education
2007

Students have individual learning style preferences including visual (V; learning from graphs, charts, and flow diagrams), auditory (A; learning from speech), read-write (R; learning from reading and… (More)

Acute exercise enhances nitric oxide modulation of vascular response to phenylephrine.

Ramrao Patil, Stephen E DiCarlo, Heidi L Collins
The American journal of physiology
1993

The influence of the release of endothelium-derived nitric oxide (NO) on the vasoconstrictor response to phenylephrine (PE) was evaluated before and after a single bout of dynamic exercise. Each rat… (More)

Daily exercise and gender influence arterial baroreflex regulation of heart rate and nerve activity.

Chung Yu Chen, Stephen E DiCarlo
The American journal of physiology
1996

The influence of daily spontaneous running (DSR) and gender on the arterial baroreflex regulation of heart rate (HR) and lumbar sympathetic nerve activity (LSNA) was examined in 13 male [7 sedentary… (More)

Cell biology should be taught as science is practised

Stephen E DiCarlo
Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology
2006

Over the past 20 years, there has been a dramatic transformation in the goals of science teaching at all levels and within all disciplines. The emphasis has moved from students obtaining a base of… (More)

Exercise training attenuates baroreflex regulation of nerve activity in rabbits.

Stephen E DiCarlo, Vernon S Bishop
The American journal of physiology
1988

Baroreflex control of heart rate (HR) and renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) during changes in arterial pressure were examined in conscious rabbits before and after 8 wk of treadmill endurance… (More)

Enkephalin-immunoreactive interneurons extensively innervate sympathetic preganglionic neurons regulating the pelvic viscera.

Ida J Llewellyn-Smith, Stephen E DiCarlo, Heidi L Collins, Janet R. Keast
The Journal of comparative neurology
2005

Enkephalin (ENK)-immunoreactive (IR) axons occur in regions containing spinal autonomic neurons and endogenous opiates contribute to spinal regulation of bladder function. To identify possible spinal… (More)

Peer instruction improves performance on quizzes.

Sumangala P. Rao, Stephen E DiCarlo
Advances in physiology education
2000

Peer instruction is a cooperative-learning technique that promotes critical thinking, problem solving, and decision-making skills. Benson's think-pair-share and Mazur's peer-instruction techniques… (More)

Onset of exercise shifts operating point of arterial baroreflex to higher pressures.

Stephen E DiCarlo, Vernon S Bishop
The American journal of physiology
1992

This study was designed to test the hypothesis that the increase in sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) at the onset of exercise is dependent on a rapid upward shift of… (More)

Too much content, not enough thinking, and too little fun!

Stephen E DiCarlo
Advances in physiology education
2009

Teachers often overrate the importance of their content and underrate their influence. However, students forget much of the content that they memorize. Thus, attempts to teach students all that they… (More)
