Perceptions of Anatomy Education--A Student's View
Joslin, Sarah
Anatomical Sciences Education, v1 n3 p133-134 May-Jun 2008
Changes in anatomy education over the last two decades have, in large part, led to less emphasis on gross anatomy in the medical curriculum. This has led many to question whether streamlined anatomy courses truly provide adequate preparation for medical practice. Rather than wondering about the effects of these changes, we should be actively seeking answers and promoting understanding between professors, clinicians, and students about what anatomy education is and what it should be.
