Student and staff experiences of interactive digital models when learning animal anatomy
Abstract Compared to human medical sciences, digital models of animals are rare, often behind subscription services and are comparatively lacking in interactivity and accessibility features. This study explores how digital models are currently being used to teach animal anatomy, providing the data required to construct the best anatomical models ...

Emotional responses of veterinary students to first encounters with animal body donors
Abstract Students' first encounters with animal body donors in higher education are a formative and also potentially stressful experience. The complex emotions elicited by body donor use in learning and their effects on professional development have been documented in medical students, but are far less explored in veterinary medical counterparts.

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 ...

Abstract Neuroanatomy has been considered one of the most challenging subjects in medical education, often leading to “neurophobia” and discouraging students from pursuing neurological specialties. At PKUHSC, the curriculum has evolved from a traditional, discipline‐based model to a technology‐enhanced, integrated “Nervous System” module for ...

Essential work, invisible workers: The role of digital curation in COVID‐19 Open Science
Abstract In this paper, we examine the role digital curation practices and practitioners played in facilitating open science (OS) initiatives amid the COVID‐19 pandemic. In Summer 2023, we conducted a content analysis of available information regarding 50 OS initiatives that emerged—or substantially shifted their focus—between 2020 and 2022 to address ...
