Tracheal chambers as a key innovation for high‐frequency emission in bat echolocation
Abstract Key innovations are pivotal for biodiversity and facilitating evolutionary success, enabling organisms' adaptation to various ecological niches through the diversification of phenotypic traits. In mammals, notable adaptations include evolving hypsodonty for grazing on grasses and, for bats, evolving echolocation and wing acquisition.

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

Medical students' perspectives on body donation to science within the Italian context
Abstract Body donation is essential for medical education and research, supporting anatomical training and clinical competence. In Italy, national data on awareness of the legislation regulating body donation and factors shaping donation‐related decisions among healthcare trainees remain limited. This study investigated knowledge of the legal framework,
