Becoming Embryology Experts with Dr. Kaur

Join Erin and guest co-host Caitlin Lowry (MS3, former GMES TA, and class of 2026 President!) as we talk about the "E" in AHE, embryology. While it may be difficult at first to understand and visualize the development of the embryo, we share our strategies for embryology success. Then, we welcome Dr. Kaur, anatomy associate block director and go-to embryology expert, to share her advice and wisdom.

Don't Forget about Histology! feat. Dr. Webster

Histology, or "micro-anatomy" as Dr. Webster likes to call it, may be the last thing on your mind as you get ready for AHE. However, it could not be more important! Join us as we discuss all things histology with histology expert and anatomy associate block director Dr. Webster: why it matters to you, what study resources we found helpful, and how to be successful in histology not just for AHE but even on STEP 1 down the road.

FAQs with Dr. Bishop

Join us as we answer your questions about AHE with none other than Dr. Bishop, co-block director for AHE. Personally, I will never forget our first dissection where he encouraged us to go faster by telling us, "No matter what you do, your patient will not survive." This is the kind of wisdom (and humor) you are going to get today during this episode, so definitely give this episode a listen. Thank you so much for joining us on this Cadaver Companion journey!

Selecting and Evaluating Study Resources: Part 3

We couldn't leave you guys without talking about all those other resources, the ones not provided for by the school. Another amazing former TA, Ben Olivo, joined us to finish this mini series on selecting and evaluating study resources and to give us the rundown of all things third party for anatomy. Should you join the ANKI cult? You have to tune in to find out. As we just pass the halfway point of our podcast, we want to remind you to reach out to us with questions either in the comments or through email (Erin.Millican@ttuhsc.edu or Eloise.Dhaiti@ttuhsc.edu).

Selecting and Evaluating Study Resources: Part 2

The practical exam is a lot like golf. If you are wondering what Robby means by this, then you definitely need to tune in to our second episode with former TAs Robby and Hannah. We cover any resource that the school provides that we did not cover in part 1, including the battle between in-person and recorded lectures, how to go from a 40 on the practice test to a 95 on the real deal, and how to get your hands dirty in lab while still taking care of yourself.

Selecting and Evaluating Study Resources: Part 1

Did you know that lecture and lab are the same? Do you know how long it is okay to cry in the shower? Those are just the kind of wisdom bombshells you can expect during this episode. Join us, along with former TAs Hannah Curtis and Robby Bustamante, as we learn about their TA projects and their biggest pieces of advice for AHE.
