Senior Researcher

Research & Teaching

As an Anatomist here at Institute of Biomedicine, UEF, I am proud to offer a Cornerstone signature about the human body, however only question that matters at the end is: how to teach anatomy? Not all content is equal; not all content is worth teaching in a textbook and not all content is equally important. I try to show examples, how to prioritize and use the precious little time students have, to achieve their best results. Flipped Classroom Matters a Lot!
As a "Molecular Morphologist", I choose Kaarniranta`s AMD research group because of its exceptional and diverse projects, and its world-class science in Age-related Macular Degeneration. I am genuinely passionate about AMD research and can’t wait to start attacking problems that I have encountered. This often means that I’ll be debating methods and working through solutions while in the shower or over breakfast.

Teaching Activities

In a world where so many distractions compete for the attention of medical and dental students, preclinical educators have a heavier task. Blended learning allows teachers to meet students where they are in the digital world.
But it also enables for an Anatomist the flexibility to bring students back into the world of real human cadaver contact and basic science in times when/if needed.

As health care professional, I strongly believe, it is also part of my mission outside the university and as a public educator to inform and motivate public to ensure that they understand the major issues about human body and some diseases, the treatment options available and the consequences of no treatment or noncompliance. As dentist and educator who loves science, anatomy and just generally having minds blown, I am always very excited about to communicate the wonder, sophistication and fragility of the human body.
