      I have acted as course director of medical gross anatomy, neuroscience, embryology, respiratory, and musculoskeletal courses. I served as chair of the curriculum committee for 6 years, during which we implemented a longitudinal, presentation-based curriculum. I have taught all aspects of gross anatomy, histology, embryology, and neuroscience. I coordinate an anatomy elective for rotating students and offer a series of lectures on the history of medicine. My research investigates learning strategies of medical students and I also attempt to describe new and forgotten anatomical structures. Show less
