Jenkin, Rebekah A.; Garrett, Samuel A.; Keay, Kevin A. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
Health education, research, and training rely on the altruistic act of body donation for the supply of cadavers. Organ transplantation and research rely on donated organs. Supply of both is limited, with further restrictions in Australia due to requirements for a next-of-kin agreement to donation, irrespective of the deceased's pre-death consent.…

Friel, Karen J.; Shultz, S. Tyler – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
Anatomy serves as a foundational course in physical therapy education, but, due to its early placement in the curriculum, may have limited clinical application at that point of a student's education. Thus, augmenting a standard dissection course with surgical procedures can enhance the clinical relevance and knowledge of the anatomical structures…
