Louisiana Christian University has acquired several new pieces of technology to enhance learning for their students. On Friday, Feb. 28, faculty demonstrated their new Anatomage Table. This technology allows students to view real human cadavers in a digital format and interact virtually with the bodies.
Dr. Wade Warren, the Biology Department Coordinator for LCU, said this equipment will allow for a different style of learning for many students on campus, not to mention different disciplines and departments.
“There’s so many advantages to having it,” said Dr. Warren. “We teach standard anatomy, but not every human body is the same. We do anatomy dissections, now we do cadaver dissections. It is going to be integrated at every level. It’s a game changer for us. We’re so thrilled it’s here.”
Warren said that he and the faculty are looking forward to implementing this new technology into course curricula in the near future.
