Matthew Morrison says he’s returning to ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ for ‘big … – AOL

Looks like there's drama brewing between Alex and Jo's estranged husband.

Matthew Morrison appears to be headed back to Grey's Anatomy in the upcoming 14th season. The Glee alum all but confirmed his return as Dr. Paul Stadler -- and it sounds like it'll be quite a meaty arc.

Speaking with The Argonaut, Morrison let it slip that he was returning in a major way on ABC's hit medical soap.

"I have a big role in Grey's Anatomy coming up," the 38-year-old actor and father-to-be told the outlet. ABC declined to comment.

Morrison made his debut on Grey's in the penultimate episode of season 13, where Alex (Justin Chambers) spent much of his time following Paul's every move at a Seattle medical conference. Though Alex had visions of beating up Jo's abusive hubby, their only interaction was a brief moment outside when Alex passed on sharing a cab with Paul, who gave him a curious look.

Sessions/Tracks

Neuroscience 2017 on Biteable.

It is our pleasure to invite you to the 17thGlobalNeuroscienceConference will be held during October 16-17, 2017 Osaka, Japan. The main theme of our conference is "NeuroscienceAcross the Lifespan, Amelioration ofNeuroscience" which covers wide range of critically important sessions

Around 1 billion people, nearly one in six of the worlds population, suffer from neurological disorders, from Alzheimer and Parkinson disease, strokes,multiple sclerosisand epilepsy tomigraine, brain injuries and neuro-infections.

The World Health Organization estimated thatneurological disordersaffect up to one billion people worldwide. In fact, neurological diseases make up 11 percent of the worlds disease burden, not including mental health and addiction disorders.

Track 1: Neurology

Neurology might be characterized as the finding and treatment of scatters of the sensory system, which incorporates the cerebrum and spinal rope. The market examination of neurology addresses the biggest and undiscovered market in prescription area. This assessed showcase investigation is relies upon likelihood of endorsement and offers of items in late stage change, statistic patterns and advancing of item. Rising and creating markets at the end of the day helps incomes. CNS therapeutics includes approximately 15% of total pharmaceutical arrangements, about $30 billion around the globe.

Track 2: Neurons

A neuron is a nerve cell that is the fundamental building square of the sensory system. Neurons are like different cells in the human body in various routes, yet there is one key distinction amongst neurons and different cells. Neurons are specific to transmit data all through the body. These exceedingly particular nerve cells are in charge of conveying data in both compound and electrical structures. There are additionally a few distinct sorts of neurons in charge of various errands in the human body. Tactile neurons convey data from the tangible receptor cells all through the body to the cerebrum. Engine neurons transmit data from the mind to the muscles of the body. Interneurons are in charge of conveying data between various neurons in the body.

Track 3: Neurological disorders

A neurological issue is any turmoil of the sensory system. Basic, biochemical or electrical irregularities in the mind, spinal line or different nerves can bring about a scope of manifestations. Cases of manifestations incorporate loss of motion, muscle shortcoming, poor coordination, and loss of sensation, seizures, perplexity, torment and adjusted levels of cognizance. There are more than 600 neurologic infections. Some of the time they can come about because of biochemical causes also. The pervasiveness rates of the range of neurological issue from various locales of the nation extended from 967-4,070 with a mean of 2394 for each 100000 populaces, giving an unpleasant gauge of more than 30 million individuals with neurological issue (barring neuroinfections and traumatic wounds). Commonness and rate rates of normal issue including epilepsy, neurology, Parkinson's ailment and tremors decided through populace based studies indicate extensive variety crosswise over various districts of the nation. The requirement for an institutionalized screening poll, uniform philosophy for case ascertainment and determination is a fundamental essential for creating strong national information on neurological issue. Higher rates of pervasiveness of neurological issue in provincial ranges, 6-8 million individuals with epilepsy and high case casualty rates of neurology (27-42%) call for pressing procedures to set up effort neurology administrations to take into account remote and country regions, create National Epilepsy Control Program and set up neurology units at various levels of social insurance pyramid.

Track 4: Central Nervous System

CNS disorders can affect either the brain or the spinal cord which results in psychiatric disorders or neurological disorders. The causes of CNS diseases are neurology, trauma, autoimmune disorders, infections, structural defects, degeneration and tumours. So here we focus on mood disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, schizophrenia and autism. Meningitis is a relatively rare infection that affects the delicate membranes called meninges that cover the brain and spinal cord. Encephalitis is the inflammation of the brain which is caused by infection or allergic reactions.

Track 5: Spine and Spinal Disorders:

This Session will incorporate The Neurospinal Disorders finding and therapeutics for patients experiencing all sicknesses of the spine and fringe nerves. For exact analyses and expanded security amid restorative methodology, pros utilize the most exceptional procedures accessible for spinal imaging, interventional neuroradiology, electro-physiological testing, and surgery.

Track 6: Neuro-Degenerative Disorders

Neurons are the building pieces of the sensory system which incorporates the cerebrum and spinal string. Neurons typically don't imitate or supplant themselves, so when they get to be distinctly harmed or bite the dust they can't be supplanted by the body. Neurodegeneration is the umbrella term for the dynamic loss of structure or capacity of neurons, including demise of neurons. Numerous neurodegenerative ailments including amyotrophic parallel sclerosis, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and Huntington's happen as an aftereffect of neurodegenerative procedures. Dementias are in charge of the best weight of sickness with Alzheimer's speaking to around 60-70% of cases.

Track 7: Pediatric Neurology

Pediatric neurology is a neurology that happens in youngsters or teenagers. Neurology influences around 6 in 100,000 youngsters. Neurology in kids are of three essential sorts. Two are ischemic neurology in which blockage of veins results in absence of blood stream and harm. At the point when a corridor is obstructed, the term blood vessel ischemic neurology (AIS) is utilized. At the point when a vein is obstructed, the term utilized is cerebral Sino venous thrombosis (CSVT). In the third shape, haemorrhagic neurology (HS), the vein breaks as opposed to being blocked. The most well-known signs and side effects of neurology incorporate the sudden appearance of Weakness or deadness of the face, arm or leg, more often than not on one side of the body; Trouble strolling because of shortcoming or inconvenience moving one side of the body, or because of loss of coordination; Problems talking or comprehension dialect, including slurred discourse, inconvenience attempting to talk, failure to talk by any means, or trouble in comprehension straightforward bearings; Severe cerebral pain particularly with regurgitating and languor; Trouble seeing plainly in one or both eyes; Severe unsteadiness or loss of coordination that may prompt to losing equalization or falling; New appearance of seizures, particularly if influencing one side of the body and took after by loss of motion in favour of the seizure movement.

Track 8: Neuro Epigenetics

In the course of recent years, the expansive field of epigenetics and, over the previous decade specifically, the rising field of neuroepigenetics have started to have colossal effect in the regions of educated conduct, neurotoxicology, CNS advancement, cognizance, compulsion, and psychopathology. In any case, epigenetics is such another field, to the point that in the vast majority of these zones the effect is more in the class of entrancing ramifications rather than set up truths. In this concise analysis, I will endeavor to address and depict a portion of the open inquiries and regions of chance that revelations in epigenetics are giving to the train of neuroscience.

Track 9: Neuro Oncology

Essential cerebrum tumors can be either harmful (contain growth cells) or considerate (don't contain disease cells). An essential mind tumor is a tumor which starts in the cerebrum. In the event that a destructive tumor which begins somewhere else in the body sends cells which wind up developing in the cerebrum, such tumors are then called optional or metastatic mind tumors. This talk is centered around essential cerebrum tumors. Mind tumors can happen at any age. The correct reason for cerebrum tumors is not clear. The manifestations of cerebrum tumors rely on upon their size, sort, and area. The most widely recognized side effects of mind tumors incorporate cerebral pains; deadness or shivering in the arms or legs; seizures, memory issues; state of mind and identity changes; adjust and strolling issues; sickness and regurgitating; changes in discourse, vision, or hearing.

Track 10: Clinical Neurology

Track 11: Dementia

Dementia is not a single disease in itself, but a general term to describe symptoms of impairment in memory, communication, and thinking. While the likelihood of having dementia increases with age, it is not a normal part of aging. Light cognitive impairments, such as poorer short-term memory, can happen as a normal part of aging. This is known as age-related cognitive decline rather than dementia because it does not cause significant problems. Dementia describes two or more types of symptom that are severe enough to affect daily activities. An analysis of the most recent census estimates that 4.7 million people aged 65 years or older in the United States were living with Alzheimer's disease in 2010 Japan is facing a worsening health crisis where more of its aging population is expected to be diagnosed with dementia over the next several years. The AFP news agency is reporting that, by 2025, around 7.3 million Japanese residents, or 20 percent of seniors over the age of 65, will suffer from dementia based on figures from the health ministry. The current number of people with the disorder is estimated to be at least 4.6 million nationally and 44 million globally.

Track 12: Parkinsons Disease

Parkinson's malady is not thought to be an existence debilitating condition, but instead it has a huge impact of your own fulfillment. With time, the ailment can realize issues with discourse, development, and mind working. The real confusion in Parkinson's sickness are circulatory strain changes, despondency, enthusiastic changes, thinking challenges, exhaustion, sexual brokenness, notice brokenness, agony and rest issue.

Track 13: Spinal Bulber Muscular Atrophy (SBMA)

Spinal-bulbar solid decay (SBMA) is a hereditary issue in which loss of engine neurons nerve cells in the spinal string and brainstem influences the piece of the sensory system that controls intentional muscle development. SBMA is now and then called Kennedy sickness, after William Kennedy, the doctor who initially portrayed it in 1968. It's likewise once in a while called bulbospinal strong decay. The adjectivebulbar alludes to a bulblike structure in the lower some portion of the mind that contains nerve cells controlling muscles in the face, mouth and throat.

Track 14: Neuronal Development and Regeneration

New neurons and glial cells are constantly produced all through life, not just at the embryonic and neonatal stages. Late examinations utilizing test creatures demonstrate that few districts of the grown-up mind have the ability to recover harmed neural tissues. In a joint effort with analysts at different research centers in NIPS, we have been examining the instruments for cell movement and recovery in the postnatal cerebrum. Our gathering intends to think about the endogenous repair systems in the cerebrum and build up another methodology to advance neuronal and glial cell recovery after damage.

Track 16: Molecular and cellular Neurobiology

Molecular neuroscience is a branch of neuroscience that watches ideas in sub-atomic science connected to the sensory systems of creatures. The extent of this subject spreads themes, for example, atomic neuroanatomy, components of sub-atomic motioning in the sensory system, the impacts of hereditary qualities and epigenetics on neuronal improvement, and the sub-atomic reason for neuroplasticity and neurodegenerative diseases. As with sub-atomic science, sub-atomic neuroscience is a moderately new field that is impressively unique.

Track 17: Neurogenomics

Neurogenomics investigates connections among genotypes, phenotypes, and the earth, utilizing a scope of genomic and bioinformatic ways to deal with integrate datasets catching various levels of sensory system function.The sensory system in vertebrates is comprised of two noteworthy sorts of cells neuroglial cells and neurons. Several distinct sorts of neurons exist in people, with shifting capacities some of them handle outside jolts; others create a reaction to boosts; others arrange in concentrated structures (cerebrum, spinal ganglia) that are in charge of comprehension, recognition, and control of engine capacities. Neurons in these brought together areas have a tendency to compose in monster arranges and discuss broadly with each other. Preceding the accessibility of expression exhibits and DNA sequencing strategies, analysts looked to comprehend the cell conduct of neurons (counting neurotransmitter arrangement and neuronal advancement and regionalization in the human sensory system) as far as the basic sub-atomic science and natural chemistry, with no comprehension of the impact of a neuron's genome on its improvement and conduct.

Track 18: Neuropsychiatry and Behavioral Science

Neuropsychiatry is a branch of medicine that deals with mental disorders attributable to diseases of the nervous system. It preceded the current disciplines of psychiatry and neurology. Neurologists have focused objectively on organic nervous system pathology, especially of the brain, whereas psychiatrists have laid claim to illnesses of the mind. Major Neuropsychiatric Conditions include the following: Addictions, Childhood and development, Eating disorders, Degenerative diseases, Mood disorders, Neurotic disorders, Psychosis & Sleep disorders.

Track 19: Diagnosis and Imaging Techniques

Diagnostic tests and procedures are vital tools that help physicians confirm or rule out the presence of a neurological disorder or other medical condition. Development of techniques that allow scientists to see inside the living brain and monitor nervous system activity as it occurs. Researchers and physicians use a variety of diagnostic imaging techniques and chemical and metabolic analyses to detect, manage, and treat neurological disease. Some procedures are performed in specialized settings, conducted to determine the presence of a particular disorder or abnormality. Many tests that were previously conducted in a hospital are now performed in a physicians office or at an outpatient testing facility, with little if any risk to the patient. Depending on the type of procedure, results are either immediate or may take several hours to process.

Track 20: Neuro-chemistry

It clarifies the neural system operations and their metabolic action of various natural structures in the sensory system. It principally weights on the powerful measures to control the dreariness and mortality with wealth of Schizophrenia, phenylketonuria, meningitis and other psychiatric issue. These are the chemicals brought into the Photo switchable ligands into particle channels stirrups the conceivable methods for assorted parts of neurotransmitters and receptors in the sensory system. Advancements and brilliance in this field uncovered the emeritus experts to the new excursion of Neuroscience as their commitment is basic to the entire new world as death rates were on the running track with permission of the neurodegenerative sicknesses.

The humble squid’s extraordinary service to neuroscience – Irish Times

August 6, 2017 medical

I first saw them by night, or rather by flashlight aimed beside the dinghy as we fished a mile beyond Brightons pier. A whole shoal of them appeared beneath the boat, waving their arms, their button eyes glistening.

We were not fishing for squid too foreign a taste for England in those days. But this early glimpse left me fascinated with their kind, not least their giant, still greatly mysterious relative with eyes the size of hubcaps.

The Brighton squids were the regular, long-fin Doryteuthis of inshore waters, not the huge, deep-water Architeuthis dux, snared this summer as trawler by-catch on the Porcupine Bank. The C na Mara (a nice echo) landed two separate specimens at Dingle a few weeks apart.

Expiring on they way up, each was around 6m long, counting in the tentacles. They brought to seven the number landed in 350 years, including a remarkable three in 1995 alone.

Two of those were trawled from the Porcupine Bank by a Marine Institute survey vessel. Dr Kevin Flannery, the Dingle marine biologist, would now like the institute to send its remote cameras for a proper look around. Meanwhile, the second squid, as dead as the first but in better shape, will soon be on display in the Dingle Oceanworld aquarium.

What could seem strangest is that giant squid are soft-bodied molluscs, like limpets or winkles. Abandoning external shells to work on jet propulsion, they have developed genes and nerves of special interest to science.

Practically every darn thing we know about how nerves work, wrote Martin Wells (HGs grandson), has been worked out from squid nerves.

I remembered the late Dr Wells, a zoologist at Cambridge University, when watching a grisly YouTube video of New Zealand scientists dissecting an Architeuthis with their students. Wells did his own share of slicing into cephalopods squid, octopus and cuttlefish and as a pioneer researcher found the whole group fascinating and wonderfully alien: Im sure he loved ET. (Find his 1998 book Civilisation and the Limpet.)

Out of water, a giant squid makes a flaccid and slithery corpse, much smaller than when living, reeking of ammonia, and far from the sinister Kraken of Nordic myths. Those tipped ashore in Ireland tend to be young and rather small, well short of the 18m now seen as maximum total length of the bigger females.

Giant squid hunt by sight, snatching at fish (and smaller squid) with velcro-tipped tentacles and pulling them in with suckered arms to a sharp, hard, parrots beak. These durable remnants were found in the stomachs of sperm whales, the squids chief predator, at the Belmullet, Co Mayo, whaling station of the early 1900s.

The Porcupine Bank may, indeed, prove a special local haunt of Architeuthis, where blue whiting and horse mackerel have been found in their food. But giant squids live worldwide, short of the polar seas, and were first filmed alive off Japan in 2004 .

There has been speculation about their variety, with strong claims for eight species or more. But a recent project, led by the University of Copenhagen, studied the genomes of giant squid from 43 tissue samples across their world range. Among the team was Dr Louise Allcock, a leading researcher on cephalopods, at the Martin Ryan Institute at NUI Galway.

It found so little variation in the squid DNA as to plump for Architeuthis dux as a single global species (see the study at http://iti.ms/2vL1T91). But this posed questions for evolution and biogeography: how had the squid spread so widely without mutation and adaptive change?

Global numbers must be large to withstand the steady, substantial appetite of sperm and other toothed whales and the hunting of squid juveniles by dolphins, fish and even sea birds.

Heavy fishing of tuna may have changed the hunting pressure on squid: the increase in tuna catches, referred to in this study, are said to result in an extra 20 million tonnes of squid of all kinds in the world oceans.

A sudden inflation in an original, small population of giant squid could explain the sameness of their global DNA. But the team guessed at the possible migration of adults, unusually tolerant of changing regional conditions, and drifting of the squids young in the great oceanic conveyor belt that carries deep north Atlantic water to surface again in the Pacific.

The squids fellow mollusc, the octopus, is renowned for extraordinary intelligence and colour-change camouflage. A recent sequencing of its genome found it has about 10,000 more genes than humans, with hundreds that dont have counterparts in other animals (nature.com/articles/nature14668).

The squid, like the octopus, edits thousands of genes, using RNA, to serve an exceptional and complex nervous system. This is the largest among invertebrates and for decades has made the ordinary, inshore, fishmongers squid the main model organism of neuroscience.

‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Recasts Owen’s Sister for Season 14 – Variety

August 4, 2017 student

Jim Smeal/REX/Shutterstock

Greys Anatomy has cast Abigail Spencer in Season 14,Variety has learned.

The Rectify alum will play Owens sister, Megan Hunt, as the role previously portrayed by Bridget Regan has been re-cast due to scheduling conflicts.

Owens sister has been mentioned numerous times throughout the course of Greys Anatomy and the character finally made her first appearance last season with Regan playing the part in one episode. Regan is busy on TNTs The Last Ship, in which she coincidentally stars opposite Greys alum Eric Dance.

Theres no word yet on how many episodes Spencer will appear in, but ABC says the recurring role will be a multi-episode arc. Owens sister is expected to have a larger storyline this season. The character was presumed to be dead after having gone missing in the army, and now that shes alive, shell be back, but not without conflict Megans former love is Dr. Nathan Riggs (Martin Henderson) who cheated on her, and now Nathan is romantically involved with Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) so Owen (Kevin McKidd) will have tricky dynamics to navigate in the upcoming season, which premieres on Sept. 28.

As for Spencer, the actress is gearing up for Season 2 of NBCs Timeless. The drama was notoriously canceled and then un-canceled, and Spencer will be back to star in the second season so its safe to assume that Megan Hunts storyline wont betoosignificant, given Spencers time commitment to the NBC series.

Spencer is repped byWME, Untitled, and Attorney Gretchen Rush.

‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Season 14 Set Photo Reunites Two Key Stars – People’s Choice

August 4, 2017 medical

Johnni Macke 3:00 pm on August 3, 2017

(ABC/Richard Cartwright)

The cast of Greys Anatomy is having way too much fun on set, and it just makes us wish we could join them as they gear up for the upcoming season.

On Wednesday (Aug. 2), Sarah Drew and Kelly McCreary proved that life as a doctor isnt always healthy with a funny photo from the season 14 set.

Back at the place where all the snacks are free #GreysAnatomy #season14 @seekellymccreary, Drew captioned her hilarious behind-the-scenes photo.

As you can see the two actresses Drew plays Dr. April Kepner and McCreary plays Dr. Maggie Pierce have raided the snack room and they arent shy about showing off their loot. Between the multiple bags of chips and the granola bars in their pockets, the whole picture makes us laugh.

Though the photo itself doesnt give away any details about whats to come next season, seeing the stars together makes us think their characters will be sharing the screen a lot more when the drama returns. While on screen the two doctors seem to be in a battle for Dr. Jackson Averys (Jesse Williams) love, their off screen reunion makes its clear that the only love the ladies really share is that of snacks, and we dont blame them.

In fact, McCreary seconded her co-stars need for snack foods by sharing the same photo with a similar caption. We just came for the free food. #greysanatomy #season14, she wrote alongside the photo.

Now, if only we knew what was in the other snack bins behind the two stars. Maybe some cookies, or fruit snacks? What do you think the Greys Anatomy doctors chow down on in between takes?

Greys Anatomy returns with a two-hour premiere on September 28, 2017 at 8 p.m. on ABC.

‘Saving Hope’ blew everything up in a very ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ series finale – The Loop (blog)

August 4, 2017 student

If youre a fan of happy endings, you were probably pretty upset after watching Thursday nights series finale of Saving Hope. We know we were, when the storyline took a Greys Anatomy-like twist that rocked our world just as hard as when Meredith had to pull the plug on Derek.

But lets back up a second, shall we?

After five seasons, Alex and Charlie finally realized that they were meant to be together. So they pulled a shotgun wedding at the hospital, then took off with Luke to embark on a vacation and eventual honeymoon. Paris and Balithose dreamlikedestinations of romance and sunwere on the table for these crazy kids, because for the first time in the entire history of the series they were able to actually sit back and be happy together.

And then it all blew up.

A massive accident meant that ambulances couldnt make it to Hope Zion, so Zach called the newlyweds and asked them to head over tothe crash tohelp in the meantime. So they did what any good doctors would do and lent a hand, earning themselves superhero monikers by those they saved on scene. Sadly, just when they had finished helping the last people and were ready to get back on the road themselves, the show borrowed a page from Greys Anatomyand their car was t-boned by an oncoming vehicle. Back to the hospital for this family.

The rest of the episode quickly became an epic tearfest for the ages. Alex and the unborn baby were okay, but Luke was in surgery and Charlie had a severe brain bleed that wasnt looking promising. Unlike the last time he was in this situation the doctors couldnt find any sign of brain activity, which was obviously not good.

That didnt mean spirit Charlie wasnt around, but this time there was a twist. He was transported into the future, where he saw that his daughter Charlotte had become an ortheopedic surgeon just like him, and Luke who made it through surgery was marrying the gal of his dreams.

As for future Alex? She had lived a long and happy life, even though she had lost the love of her life 50 years before that, and somehow managed to move on without Charlie.

It was enough to allow spirit Charlie to finally let go, but not before seeing present-day Alex one more time, in thetype of farewell scene you can only get away with on a show like this. And thats when Alex really had to say goodbye, as she came up with a plan to donate all of Charlies vital organs to those in need, therefore giving hope to a handful of other families.

Her thinking? She wasnt cursed after all, but she was blessed. Because Charlie was supposed to die in that car crash five years ago, but instead he came back and miraculously tread the line between the dead and living for five more years, giving them borrowed time that she was completely thankful for.

Butbecause we needed one more loving image of these two together before saying goodbye for good, the last scene ever featured them together again. Only this time they were in a version of heaven, a.k.a. the beach, where Charlie had been waiting 50 years for his love to come back to him (he had the hearts etched out in the sand to prove it). With one final kiss the screen faded out, and we were left with the notion that love (eventually) conquers all.

So okay we suppose thats something of a happy ending after all. But man, what a way to go out. That wasnt exactly how we thought this show would go down after so many years of rooting for Alex and Charlie to get together, butwe can say that well definitely remember it.

And in the end, isnt that all you really want from a series finale?

Farewell, Saving Hope. Its been a swell five years.

‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Season 14: Jesse Williams Reunites With Sarah Drew And Kelly McCreary – People’s Choice

The cast of Greys Anatomy cant get enough of one another, and its making all of us fans even more ready for the series to return this fall.

On Thursday (Aug. 3), Kelly McCreary posted a hilarious picture with her two costars Jesse Williams and Sarah Drew, and from the looks of it these actors cant escape one another even if they wanted to!

Cant even take a ride on a golf cart without these two. #Jaggpril, McCreary, who plays Dr. Maggie Pierce on the ABC drama captioned her goofy group selfie.

Although it looks like Williamss Jackson Avery and Drews April Kepner may very well be in a love triangle with McCrearys Pierce come season 13, the storyline clearly isnt causing this trio to take a break from hanging out. In fact, you could even say theyre a little too close for comfort.

Both Williams and Drew shared the same photo on their Instagram accounts, and their captions just say it all. Hey guys Its cool if I ride with you, right? #jaggpril, Drew wrote on her repost. Williams took the picture and said, This is going well so far #Jaggpril.

The best part about this trios on-set golf cart ride is that the hashtag #Jaggapril was used on all of the images. Its a mixture of all of their characters name and gives us a little taste of what life is going to be like at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital when the series picks back up.

Greys Anatomy returns with a two-hour premiere on September 28, 2017 at 8 p.m. on ABC for its 14th season.

Ben Roethlisberger, and the anatomy of the ‘Pump Fake’ – Behind the Steel Curtain

August 4, 2017 medical

When we evaluate quarterbacks, the one skill set that is often neglected is the pump fake. The pump fake is a skill that only few quarterbacks can execute, but if done correctly, has the ability to change the course of a game. Perhaps to better understand this, we should perhaps understand why the pump fake is a useful skill for quarterbacks.

Most defensive backs read the eyes of the quarterback in order to anticipate where a they are going to throw. A good pump fake can draw defenders away from the actual spot that a quarterback intends to throw. When it comes to this skill, no quarterback in the NFL can excute this like Ben Roethlisberger. Over the years, Roethlisberger has been able to execute the pump fake in such a way that deceives an entire defense on the field.

One criteria required to execute the pump fake is hand size. It is no secret that Roethlisbergers has some of the biggest hands among NFL quarterbacks. With this noted, Roethlisberger is able to execute two types of pump fakes: The soft fake and The hard fake.

In this type of fake, the quarterback barely raises his arm, as Roethlisberger demonstrates here. Notice that subtle gesture freezes the safety just enough for him to execute the perfect throw to receiver Martavis Bryant. The whole idea is that even with the soft fake, Roethlisberger is to deceive the safety into thinking he is throwing in the opposite direction.

This is Bens signature fake and it is one that is amazing to watch. Ben in this case, fully commits to performing a throwing motion but note how the ball never comes out of his hand. The nature of his motion freezes the outside and inside linebacker, and draws the cornerback towards him; as a result, tight end Jesse James is wide open to make the catch.

Last season, according to Pro Football Focus, Ben Roethlisberger had the highest percentage of pump fakes per drop back by a very large margin. It is clear from viewing this statistic, Roethlisberger has fully adopted this skill to the point where it has become second nature.

The only real method of stopping Roethlisbergers pump fake is for pass rushers to get close enough to aim at his throwing shoulder. The problem in this case being that the Steelers have one of the best offensive lines in the NFL, and has made it increasingly difficult for pass rushers to get close to Roethlisberger. No matter what one may say about Roethlisberger, this skill is one of many that makes him among the very elite at his position.
