Global Education in Anatomy and Physiology During COVID-19: Lessons Learnt and Future Recommendations

Abstract

The Coronavirus Infectious Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has disrupted several essential aspects of anatomy and physiology education worldwide. With this pandemic, dynamic instructional and technological interventions have been taking place rapidly in an effort to minimize the adverse repercussions of moving away from the traditional means of education in these critical scientific disciplines. COVID-19 has necessitated higher educational administrations, faculty, and students to pursue teaching, learning, and assessment of anatomy and physiology courses/curricula through innovative strategies without compromising on the quality or rigor of education. Our study encapsulates, for the first time, globally published reports on the key implications of COVID-19 in anatomy and physiology education, along with future recommendations. The analysis would help improve education worldwide in anatomy and physiology, and foster better preparation for future pandemics
