SpartanAnatomy.org: Evaluating a new interactive neuroradiology tool for early medical education

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Teaching neuroanatomy through the lens of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers medical students a strong foundation for success. However, many existing MRI learning resources lack interactivity and user‐friendliness, require payment, or include an overwhelming number of labeled structures.

Show Me the Brain!!: A modern approach to neuroanatomy education

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Show Me the Brain!! (SMtB) is a digital system for interactive graphics that is designed to support instruction in neuroanatomy and neuroscience. It will soon be made open‐source and freely available. SMtB bridges medical and traditional neuroanatomy instruction with the computational systems and representational conventions common in ...

A comparative machine learning study of schizophrenia biomarkers derived from functional connectivity

Scientific Reports
Functional connectivity holds promise as a biomarker of schizophrenia. Yet, the high dimensionality of predictive models trained on functional connectomes, combined with small sample sizes in clinical research, increases the risk of overfitting. Recently,

Studying estrogen effects in an in vitro-model of traumatic brain injury (TBI)

Brain Organoid and Systems Neuroscience Journal
In traumatic brain injury (TBI), mechanical forces trigger a series of detrimental processes in the affected brain, which eventually result in substantial neuronal death. TBI has thus become a leading cause of death and disability worldwide.

Electrophysiological Characterization of eGFP-Labeled Intrastriatal Dopamine Grafts

Cell Transplantation, 2015
Substitution of degenerated dopaminergic (DA) neurons by intrastriatally transplanted ventral mesencephalon (VM)-derived progenitor cells has been shown to improve motor functions in parkinsonian patients and animal models, whereas investigations of ...

Immersive virtual reality as a teaching tool in neuroanatomy: A scoping review

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Basic core courses in various undergraduate programs, such as neuroanatomy, pose a challenge for students due to the large volume and complexity of the content. In this context, educational technologies such as immersive virtual reality (IVR), which allow students to actively interact with learning materials, offer a complementary pedagogical ...

Exploring student perceptions of integrating mixed reality with cadaveric teaching in undergraduate neuroanatomy education: A qualitative study

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Mixed reality (MR) using head‐mounted displays provides three‐dimensional visualizations that have been suggested to enhance learning when used alongside conventional anatomy teaching in medical education. This study explored student perceptions of the integration of MR and traditional cadaveric learning, and their optimal delivery to support ...

A Comparative View on Human Somatic Cell Sources for iPSC Generation

Stem Cells International, 2014
The breakthrough of reprogramming human somatic cells was achieved in 2006 by the work of Yamanaka and Takahashi. From this point, fibroblasts are the most commonly used primary somatic cell type for the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells ...

The life and legacy of Dr. Carlton G. Smith

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Carlton George Smith, M.Sc., M.D., Ph.D., R.C.N.V.R. (1905–2003) was a Canadian anatomist and professor at the University of Toronto. He was highly regarded as an outstanding teacher, cutting‐edge neuroscience researcher, and accomplished author. Dr. Smith became a member of the AAA in 1938 and joined the prestigious Cajal Club in 1950.
