My Experience In The Cadaver Laboratory by Josh1000: 11:34pm On Jul 12, 2014 |
The college of medicine UNILAG has a powerful Anatomy department filled with great Academicians. Our Gross anatomy is very important because thats where we get to see the human body in full so it's quite important. Our weapons in the lab include God first of all our brains, our dissecting manuals, dissecting instruments and Human Anatomy Atlas. A typical day in the gross anatomy laboratory where we get to dissect the human body could be frustrating or enjoyable. Our Lab is large and we have different groups, we are usually welcomed with Formalin which has an irritating smell and brings water from your eyes. On my table, we start by praying for God's guidance. We follow our dissecting manuals and then start dissecting. I get frustrated when we can't find a nerve, a vein or an artery because this slows us down so much! but the joy in finding them is so great! our dissection makes us appreciate the human body and see the wonderful works of God. We are sometimes lucky to find someone to put us through otherwise we follow the standard Problem based learning for dissection. My group members are lusually too careful as if they once knew the cadaver though I Try to explain to them as the group leader that he's dead and we need to dissect fast which ar times lead to arguments. Some of us are usually excited to sign attendance and leave especially when we are frustrated and we cant find what we are supposed to, so we hurry to sign attendance and leave. The beauty of this is that the dissection helps us to understand what we read so we would help the society health wise one day. Our Cadaver has also helped in contributing to knowledge that will help save the live of many people! Joshua Idowu 200L Dentistry and Dental Surgery College of Medicine, UNILAG. 10 Likes 1 Share |

When I was in 200l one of my anatomy lecturers who was a sadist made us write a theory exam in the cadaver dissecting room, with formalin and faint smell of rotting corpses smelling there there was absolutely no need for him to have done that but he went ahead with it because him bin dey beef us since and like I said before he is a sadist. Mr Ajene. That was his name. 1 Like |

Good luck @op, I hated dissection when I was in med school. Rarely went for it yet I got 68 in my Anat, the external examiner denied me my distinction when I mistakened the falx cerebri for the falx cerebelli. Though the mistake was rather out of phobia than ignorance. 1 Like |
