The Anatomy VIdeo and Imagery Diversity Project

TThis time on the Anatomy in Clay® Learning System podcast, a special conversation with three individuals involved with the Anatomy Video and Imagery Diversity project, also known as AVID. AVID is an open repository of images available to free to educators and students alike and it just became available this week, specifically on March 4, 2024. On the podcast are Sarah Anderson, an assistant professor of anatomy at the University of Calgary; Elena Huang, a second year medical student at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada; and Kaden Joseph, a second year student majoring in kinesiology at the University of Windsor in Windsor, Canada. (All three introduce themselves further on the podcast.) The AVID collection: Guests: Kaden Joseph is a second-year student studying kinesiology at the University of Windsor. His particular interests are anatomy and physiology so working on this project and making a contribution towards better representation in the world of anatomy is something he is extremely proud of! Kaden os part of the team from the University of Windsor creating overview videos to accompany the series of images in the repository. "Contributing towards this project has been an amazing experience and I'm excited about what its future holds and how it will continue to grow." Sarah Jayne Anderson is an Assistant Professor (Teaching) in the Department of Cell Biology and Anatomy and Director of Anatomy for the Undergraduate Medical Education Program at the University of Calgary. Her academic interests include the neuroscience of learning, health sciences education (especially anatomy!), and curricular design… to name a few! "Engaging with the AVID Team has been a source of inspiration as each member has brought a unique perspective and passion to the project. Together we are excited to continue improving accessibility to educational resources and positively contributing to increasing diverse representation in anatomy teaching and learning." Elena Huang is a second year medical student at McMaster University and a digital illustrator with the AVID project. Elena grew up with drawing, painting, and sculpting as hobbies, eventually discovering and self-teaching digital illustration. "It has been an amazing experience to be able to combine this with my love for anatomy and medicine in a way that promotes diversity and representation. I hope my contributions will be easily accessible and of use to learners, educators, and of course, anyone passionate about anatomy." Intro and Outro music "Vicious Pen" courtesy of Moby Gratis
