The beauty of experiential learning in anatomy
Abstract Anatomy is a unique subject where one must learn by doing. This is achieved through a variety of methods like dissection, use of prosections, imaging, playful learning (crocheting structures, drawing, and painting organs), through functional movement like yoga or pilates, use of 3D plastic models or by immersing oneself in virtual or augmented

Framing anatomical variation in anatomy textbooks: Language use and its implications
Text mining of anatomy textbooks shows “abnormal” is the most frequently used descriptor for anatomical variation, reinforcing a binary framing. We advocate for explicit teaching of variation as a spectrum, with consistent, neutral terminology and contextualization (prevalence and functional relevance) to support a more nuanced understanding of ...
