Focus is on the art of portraiture and underlying structures of the face, fundamental anatomical elements such as the skull and muscles of facial expressions, and the intersections between human anatomy and art. Studio sessions incorporate plastic models, dry bones, cadaveric specimens, and live models. Encourages use of proper anatomical terminology for describing structures and their relationships.

Blends human anatomy and artwork, and is aimed at artists who aspire to study human structure, shape, and form. Weekly lectures will highlight intersections and influences of human anatomy on art, and explore the role it has played in various forms of artwork. Students encouraged to use proper anatomical terminology to describe structures and their relationships. Weekly studio sessions provide an opportunity for students to immerse in anatomically inspired drawings. Plastic models, dry bones, cadaveric specimens, and live models will be used for the studio sessions.

A survey of medical etymology and terminology that parallels preclinical medical education. Topics focus on Greek and Latin roots and their appearances in the medical lexicon.

Carried out under the supervision of one or more members of the staff. Prerequisite: consent of instructor.

This undergraduate course is designed to teach human anatomy through radiographs, CT scans, MRIs and cadaver material with the emphasis on the understanding of common clinical conditions and sports injuries. To aid students in developing their image interpretive skills, additional resources such as virtual interactive scans, the 3D anatomy table, and interactive digital applications will be utilized. This course divides the anatomy of the body into five areas; each area will be presented in a two-week block. In the first week of each block, students will develop an understanding of human anatomy through the identification of relevant structures on prosecutions (cadaver material), and in the second week, students will utilize this knowledge in the interpretation of radiographs, CT scans and MRIs. The anatomy will be taught in relation to common clinical conditions and sports injuries; and, student projects will focus on the understanding of the anatomy and treatment of these conditions and injuries.

Enrollment limited to seniors and graduate students. Comprises two parts, lecture and lab, both of which are required. Lectures in regional anatomy and dissection of the human cadaver; the anatomy of the trunk and limbs through the dissection process, excluding the head and neck.

Introduces students to human anatomy of the head and neck through a dissection based course. Students use proper anatomical terminology to describe structures and their relationships. Emphasis on typical anatomy as seen in healthy individuals, with some examples of anatomical variation introduced through dissection and clinical cases. Ideal for senior undergraduate students who have completed SURG 101 or equivalent, are familiar with basic anatomy, and have some dissection experience. Prerequisites: Surgery 101 or equivalent.

Seminar is for students who wish to expand their understanding of the influence of human anatomy on the design of commercial products and prosthesis, and the performance of core strengthening exercises, such as: headphones and ear buds design, automobile interior design, yoga/Pilates exercises and exoskeletons of the lower limb. Students will learn how societal advancements have evolved to increasingly accommodate human form and function. Guest speakers are experts in their fields of audiology, automobile design, exercise and prosthetics. The laboratory component exposes students to human anatomy via cadaver specimens, 3D digital images, the 3D anatomy table, apps and models. By the end of this course, students will be able to: explain how properly designed headphones and ear buds aid in sound detection; describe the concepts of anatomically correct automotive interior design; explain how thoughtfully choreographed yoga and Pilates movements incorporate proper joint and muscle movement; explain how properly designed joint prosthesis aids in joint movement and muscle function; and deliver group presentations using proper communication skills.

Imaging Anatomy of Thoracoabdominal Emergencies is an elective course created for medical students who have taken Surgery 203 and who want to expand their understanding of imaging anatomy of thoracic and abdominal emergencies. Each class will focus on an individual clinical entity. For each clinical vignette we will discuss the relevant clinical history and pertinent labs, generate differential diagnoses, and the choice of imaging. The pertinent imaging findings will be assessed, and the clinical management discussed with the consulting surgeon. The laboratory component exposes students to human anatomy via cadaver material, 3D digital images, and the 3D anatomy table.

Fundamental human anatomy, spanning major body systems and tissues including nerve, muscle, bone, cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, and renal systems. Explore intricacies of structure and function, and how various body parts come together to form a coherent and adaptable living being. Correlate clinical conditions and therapeutic interventions. Participate in lab sessions with predissected cadaveric material and hands-on learning to gain understanding of the bioengineering human application domain. Encourage anatomical thinking, defining challenges and opportunities for bioengineers. Lecture and Lab.
