Body donor programs in Australia and New Zealand: Current status and future opportunities
Abstract Body donation is critical to anatomy study in Australia and New Zealand. Annually, more than 10,000 students, anatomists, researchers, and clinicians access tissue donated by local consented donors through university‐based body donation programs. However, little research has been published about their operations.

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.
