Australian and New Zealand universities commenced a new academic year in February/March 2020 largely with "business as usual." The subsequent Covid-19 pandemic imposed unexpected disruptions to anatomical educational practice. Rapid change occurred due government-imposed physical distancing regulations from March that increasingly restricted anatomy laboratory teaching practices. Anatomy educators both these countries were mobilized adjust their approaches. This study on education disruption...
Abstract The Raymond A. Dart Collection of Human Skeletons (Dart Collection) is housed in the School Anatomical Sciences at University Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa, and comprises one largest documented cadaver‐derived human skeletal assemblages world. This collection originated early 1920s as a result efforts continues to grow. skeletons included represent varied indigenous immigrant populations from southern Europe Asia. contribution documents history provides an updated...
3D printing is a form of rapid prototyping technology, which has led to innovative new applications in biomedicine. It facilitates the production highly accurate three dimensional objects from substrate materials. The inherent accuracy and other properties have allowed it exciting anatomy education surgery, with specialty neurosurgery having benefited particularly well. This article presents findings literature review Pubmed Web Science databases investigating surgical education,...
Developments in biology and genetics recent decades have caused significant shifts the understanding conceptualization of human biological variation. Humans vary biologically different ways, including individually, due to age, ancestry, sex. An complexities all levels variation is necessary for efficient health care delivery. Important steps teaching medical students about could be carried out anatomy classes, thus, it important that anatomical education absorbs new developments how...
We review methods of sex estimation from human skeletal remains in South Africa within the forensic context. Sex is one key variables obtaining a biological profile individual or population whose are analysed. based on morphological characteristics elements specific and thus establishment regional criteria imperatives for modern anthropology. A literature was carried out wherein available identification (morphological, metrical, geometric morphometrics molecular) African material were...
Cadavers play an important role in anatomy education. In Australia, bodies for education are acquired only through donations. To gain insight into educational dynamics laboratory as well to facilitate body donation programs and thanksgiving ceremonies, it is understand students' attitudes toward donation. this cross‐sectional study, the of Macquarie University's first, second, fifth year chiropractic students were investigated. University have a four semester long program, which includes...
ABSTRACT Significant differences in views on race (once a core anthropological concept) occur between scientists from different countries. In light of the ongoing debate, we present concept's current status Europe. On three occasions 2002–03, surveyed European anthropologists' opinions toward biological concept. The participants were asked whether they agreed that there are races within species Homo sapiens . A dependence was sought type response and several factors. Three these...
Introduction: Anatomy has been at the foundation of medical students' training. In recent decades, programs in many countries have undergone major reform both pedagogy and content. These reforms generated intense debates, focusing mainly on way new affected graduates' knowledge anatomy their clinical capabilities. Anatomy, however, is not only core to medicine, but also a number allied complementary health disciplines. While evaluation teaching learning heavily scrutinized, education...
Many medical schools practice commemorative ceremonies to honor body donors. Attitudes of education stakeholders toward these have not yet been fully investigated. The aim this study was explore anatomy students' attitudes commemorations at a multicultural institution which has introduced yet. A survey carried out on different groups students that were exposed and human remains. used record basic demographic data from the respondents, ask if they would support establishment an commemoration...
Abstract It is argued in this article that the human body both health and disease cannot be fully understood without adequately accounting for different levels of variation. The focuses on variation due to ancestry, arguing inclusion information pertaining ancestry anatomy teaching materials courses should carried out implemented with care line latest developments biological anthropology related sciences. This seems particular importance education professionals, as recent research suggests...
Anatomy has a history as critical area of study for medical and health professional programs. Over the last several decades way in which anatomy is taught resources available to aid delivery material evolved significantly. One these been videos, their role education transformed over this time due technological advancements curricula reform. While there have significant advances video technology usage, still scarcity research supporting various purposes videos. Differences results studies...
Introduction: Anatomical knowledge and understanding are key components of physiotherapy education practice.Traditionally, anatomy has been taught as a foundation stream within the first year(s) education.This curricular model is based on assumption that further learning in subsequent years builds upon gained early stages program.However, retention rate all basic sciences often called into question.In anatomy, several studies suggest endures considerable attrition, highlighting need for...
Anatomy, one of the key pre-clinical subjects in medical and allied disciplines, has traditionally relied on instruction based utilization cadavers.Acquiring cadavers for anatomy education presented a challenge many countries.This been met through organization well informed culturally sensitive body donation programs.Attitudes general population, professionals students are important devising these programs.The aim this study was to investigate attitudes from University Novi Sad toward whole...
