ANAT 331 focuses on different aspects of the human musculoskeletal system, and explores functional and clinical implications of anatomical structure. Dissection of specific body regions is a key component of the laboratory sessions. This, together with associated teaching and assessment tasks, aims to assist students to obtain an in-depth knowledge of musculoskeletal anatomy, facilitate recognition of normal and variant anatomy, develop a critical approach to interpreting contemporary anatomy research, and encourage team work and communication skills.
