Teaching and Learning in Anatomy
Anatomy is the cornerstone of all health science disciplines; therefore, it is crucial to investigate ways to improve the learning and teaching process. We are interested in investigating different ways to improve student learning and experience.
Bioethics
Working with body donors is a privilege which everyone should treat with utmost respect. This opportunity provides learners and educators with a chance to address important topics such as respect, dignity, death and dying, and self-care. We are interested in investigating the social, spiritual and ethical impacts.
Body Donor Research
Working with body donors is considered to be a superior way to learn anatomy and improve patient care. We are interested in maximizing the generous gift made by our body donors to improve education, research and training.
