ANAT 391  Introduction to Cadaveric Dissection  Units: 3.00  
Students work individually and collaboratively to develop macro and microdissection skills using human cadaveric specimens. Students learn how cadaveric dissection for teaching purposes (prosection) influences communication and teaching of anatomy.

Course Learning Outcomes:

  1. Dissect and display gross and microscopic anatomical features on a human cadaveric specimen using conventional and novel dissection techniques, producing a high-quality museum worthy specimen.
  2. Critically develop and appraise questions and concepts related to gaps in contemporary anatomical pedagogy to create a feasible research question.
  3. Clearly communicate the process of dissection and major findings from completed student work to contextualize dissection as a tool for teaching anatomy and in a research setting.
