University of Nottingham - 23rd & 24th June 2025
Our 4th annual hybrid conference was hosted by Leia Boote and Alex Impedovo at the University of Nottingham.
ECA 25 took place on Monday 23rd and Tuesday 24th June 2025.
Our theme this year was 'Anatomy Unbound: Integrating Disciplines & Connecting Generations'.
Things in Jars: A Potted History of Fluid Preservation in Anatomical Collections
Simplifying Embryology: A Hands-On Workshop for Effective Teaching
with Naila Ali & Maria Chalasti
Mentoring Made Easy: Practical Skills for Early Career Educators
with Dr Munesh Khamuani & Dr Muhammad Aasin Rasheed
Building the Body: Hands-On MSK Anatomy with DIY Skeletons
with Ms Natasha Noel-Barker & Dr Rudi Billeter-Clark
On the Monday evening after our workshops, we all headed to the ECA Quiz written by Anthony Bright and hosted by Alex Impedovo!
Well done to the victors: the Vagal Vanquishers!
After that, we had our Conference Dinner at Bella Italia with amazing food!
Then late into the evening (2am...), we moved on to NQ64 Arcade Bar for some drinks, games, and dancing.
This was followed by more cocktails and more dancing at a club (pictures redacted)... with very little sleep for some by the morning.
On Wednesday 25th June, just after ECA 25, another event took place at the University of Nottingham.
It was the first conference and launch event of Anatome, an initiative focus on inclusive anatomical education.
Aisia Lea, Anatome's Founder, previously presented about this initiative at ECA 24 in Sunderland - You can check it out here.
Aisia also discussed 'Taking Steps to Diversify Anatomical Education: A Student’s Perspective' for an ECA Webinar in October 2024.
Check out the link below to get all the information on this event and the resources available from Anatome.
