As an educator, I design and implement evidence-based courses in gross anatomy, embryology, and human dissection to undergraduate, graduate, and medical students studying in the Faculties of Medicine, Arts & Science, & Kinesiology. Drawing on my breadth of experiences across health professions education, my courses emphasize the clinical applicability of foundational knowledge.
As an education researcher, I am the founder and lead-PI of the Advances in Teaching and Learning in the Anatomical Sciences (ATLAS) Research Lab (www.atlasresearchlab.ca). Together with my team of student researchers, the overarching objectives of my program of research are to enhance student learning via 1) evidenced-based in-class approaches to teaching, 2) meaningful student assessments, and 3) vocationally relevant course design.
