She is also specialises in the field of anatomical education. She strongly supports cadaveric dissection and believes that the best anatomy teaching practice requires the careful adaptation of resources and methods including the use of ceroplastic/museal collections, the wax modelling or the creation of 3D models (twin digital) of museal specimens. Her reaserach interests also include the study of Cardiovascular Diseases.
