Shortage Of Dead Bodies Not Helping Anatomy Study In Nigeria

 


Professor Moyosore Salihu Ajao, a professor of anatomy at the University of Ilorin, said a limited number of corpses for study in most medical schools in the country were found to impede the study of anatomy and related outcomes. .. 

 Moyosole made observations during his 214th first lecture entitled "Intestines, Brain, Environmental Toxins: Balancing the Conflict between Need and Cost" at the university. The first lecture of 

 is given once in the life of most high-ranking scholars. 

 Such an opportunity should present the  work of life of such an instructor. 

 For Professor Ajao, his college anatomy career revolved around four main themes: students, teachers, community anatomy awareness and the application of subjects in everyday life. His contribution to  the study of environmental toxins, brains, and; Education and guidance in the field of comparative neuroanatomical studies and their application to human existence, and anatomy for the next and future generations of anatomists. 

 Scholars have stated that a unique feature of anatomical research in most schools is the lack of access to the "raw materials" needed for  practical instruction. 

 "They are not sold on the market in any part of the world," he said, referring to the availability of corpses for research purposes. 

 "Human anatomy is a science dealing with the structure of the human body, so these structures cannot be fully understood from written explanations to dimensional drawings and plastic models. 

 The anatomy of the human body (corpse) has been for centuries. The basis for understanding the structure and function of the human body across. 

 "In other words, a complete understanding of the importance of the corpse to humans is far  beyond what we should overlook. 

 "When I got my job as a young teacher in the Faculty of Anatomy, the first big challenge was the chronic shortage of corpses in the Faculty of Anatomy. After a quick check at another university, we struggled. We realized that we weren't the only ones, for a body that fits well into the section, "he added. 

 Citing one of his studies, Professor Ajao has various backgrounds behind the shortage of Nigerian universities, reflecting the low ratio of students to corpses while studying at Nigerian School of Medicine. I said there was a cause. 

 "This survey result is consistent with previous reports from China that about 12 to 15 students used a panel that violated international standards, recommending up to 6 students per panel. 

" The National University Commission recommends an average of eight students per body. 

 However, Professor Ajao says that the pressure to produce more doctors in the country is increasing year by year, so  facilities including corpse supply are available. For a limited time, he said the student population continues to grow.
