Maud Creze; Sanjib Kumar Ghosh – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2025
Adherence to the highest ethical standards is mandatory while handling precious human tissues received through the altruistic act of body donation. In 2019, misconduct at the Body Donation Center in Paris led to its closure. This adversely affected the hands-on human dissection sessions within the anatomy education program at Université…

Anatomy educators are often at the forefront of adopting innovative and advanced technologies for teaching, such as artificial intelligence (AI). While AI offers potential new opportunities for anatomical education, hard lessons learned from the deployment of AI tools in other domains (e.g., criminal justice, healthcare, and finance) suggest that…

Dissection of human body donors is a common component of anatomy curricula, as it provides opportunities for tactile and intellectual engagement unmatched otherwise. Additionally, interaction with human body donors contributes to the "hidden curriculum" of allowing students to begin to ethically practice patient care with empathy,…

The reconstruction of two-dimensional (2D) slices to three-dimensional (3D) digital anatomical models requires technical skills and software that are becoming increasingly important to the modern anatomist, but these skills are rarely taught in undergraduate science classrooms. Furthermore, learning opportunities that allow students to…

Power, Samantha; Kotlarek, Katelyn J. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: There is currently little evidence reporting the typical morphology of the palatoglossus (PG) muscle. The primary purpose of this exploratory study is to determine whether magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods used to quantify the morphology of the levator veli palatini (LVP) muscle can be applied to the PG. The secondary purpose is to…

Cline, Christina; Santuzzi, Alecia M.; Samonds, Karen E.; LaDue, Nicole; Bergan-Roller, Heather E. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2022
Students, particularly those in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) and healthcare-related programs, should develop proficient interpersonal skills, including communication. To help students develop effective communication skills, instructors need to consider the value students give to learning these skills. The Student…

Edwards, Danielle N.; Meyer, Edgar R.; Brooks, William S.; Wilson, Adam B. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
Medical education has reported a shortage of anatomy educators since the 1960s. While the faculty pipeline has recently been explored, insights into retirement intentions, a key driver of faculty turnover, have yet to be investigated. With the mean age of anatomists rising, knowledge of retirement intentions among current educators is essential to…

Gitto, Lorenzo; Middleton, Frank A.; Reynolds, Erin S.; Thangamani, Saravanan; Jaeger, Daniel A.; Mihaila, Dana M. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
The COVID-19 pandemic severely affected the medical education worldwide. The infection risk for medical students and healthcare personnel who work with COVID-19 positive cadavers or tissues remains unclear. Moreover, COVID-19 positive cadavers have been rejected by medical schools, adversely impacting the continuum of medical education. Herein,…

Anatomy is a required curricular component within physician assistant (PA) programs, but the Accreditation Review Commission on Education for the Physician Assistant (ARC-PA) does not regulate specific course characteristics such as how or when anatomy is taught or the inclusion or type of specific laboratory approaches. The growing number of…

It is likely existing anatomical illustrations are often used as the basis for new illustrative works, given not all illustrators have access to human tissues, bodies, or prosections on which to base their illustrations. Potential issues arise with this practice in the realms of copyright infringement and plagiarism when authors are seeking to…

Chuan-Hang Yu; Toshihide Sato – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2025
This study investigates the intriguing choice of frontispiece design in Kaitai Shinsho (1774), the first systematic Japanese translation of a Western anatomical text. While the main content of Kaitai Shinsho was translated from Johann Adam Kulmus's "Ontleedkundige Tafelen" (1734), its frontispiece notably deviates from Kulmus's original…

The incorporation of humanism through exploration of pathology in gross anatomy allows students to develop a deeper appreciation of the pathological basis of disease and to explore the impacts of pathology on donors' lives through clinicopathologic correlation of their findings. The purpose of this short communication was to describe and evaluate…

According to self-determination theory, the need for competence, autonomy, and relatedness has been associated with intrinsic motivation. Fulfilling basic psychological needs can lead to better learning, academic performance, and well-being. In this study, an anatomy program integrated gamification and drawing methods to explore their influence on…
