Morpho‐functional analyses of the jaw apparatus in the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna, Psittaciformes, Aves): Adaptations to feeding behavior

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Macaws are renowned for processing dry, mechanically resistant fruits, yet the species‐level anatomical and functional correlates of this performance remain incompletely resolved. We examined the feeding apparatus of the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna) using an integrated approach that combines osteology, myology, and bite‐force estimates

Novel application of gamification to support undergraduate anatomy: Student perceptions and performance

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy is a foundational component of various medical and paramedical disciplines. Existing research has suggested that games or game elements can improve student interest in musculoskeletal (MSK) anatomy. This project builds on previous gamification and serious game work and incorporates new anatomy‐based games into undergraduate anatomy ...

Cooperative learning in anatomy: Comparing virtual avatars and human specimens

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Contemporary research demonstrated that undergraduate medical students rated an augmented reality learning tool entitled “human muscular arm avatar” as useful for their self‐directed individual learning. Beyond this subjective assessment, it was largely unknown whether avatar‐based study would also improve knowledge test scores at an objective
