Proximal vs. Distal | Student Doctor Network Forums
I know that proximal means the point closest to a point of reference and distal means a point furthest to a point of reference, but does that point you are calling proximal or distal need to be on the same limb/structure/bone? For instance, the elbow is distal to the wrist. But isn't the...
specialty jokes | Student Doctor Network Forums
I always enjoy these jokes but can never remember them. I'll start off with a few that I remember. Accronyms: - PMI = Point of maximal information (used on surgery rounds, steth placed on top of xiphoid which enables one to hear breath, bowel and heart sounds all at once). - ABC's...

death note | Student Doctor Network Forums
Does anyone have a good sample death note to share? It has been a difficult task for me to come up with a death note that is complete and concise, professional looking with grace and style. :(
Is sensory stimuli the same thing as distal stimuli?
The two terms are not synonymous, although there is some overlap between them. MCAT questions are usually about picking the best answer out of a few that could be right. Your definition of distal stimulus is a little off; distal stimuli are the actual objects and events in the environment. Your definition is for proximal stimuli.
