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

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 ...
