Modern competency‐based teaching of human sexual development
Abstract Embryology is an integral part of anatomy and a key subject in basic medical education. The development of the sexual tract, which is closely associated with the formation of the urinary tract and the organs of continence, is particularly complex and relevant for many medical disciplines.

Essential embryology for the Canadian pathologists’ assistant
Abstract Pathologists' assistants (PAs) are pivotal in healthcare, conducting autopsies and examining tissues under a pathologist's guidance. Embryology knowledge is crucial for PAs to accurately assess anomalies and identify pathologies. Yet, it is often overlooked in academic PA training programs.

Mutation in the androgen receptor gene (AR) is known to cause androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS). In an X-linked recessive manner, an AR mutation gets transmitted to the offspring through carrier mothers in 70% of cases, the other 30% arising de novo.

We identified a deep intronic variant of PROK2 in one female patient with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) through whole‐genome sequencing (WGS). In vitro splicing assays and protein structure predictions indicated that this variant was likely pathogenic and might lead to this disease.
