This past July 17-21st, the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology hosted the Fascia Summer School in collaboration with the University of Padua, Italy. 

The event featured didactic lectures on the most recent advances in fascia, dissection labs conducted by our lead anatomists, Carla Stecco and Gabriel Venne, and hands-on workshops to expose participants to the different fields of practice and research on fascia.

Thank you to Prof. Venne and the Division of Anatomical Sciences for their work in ensuring the success of this event!

So when Mikaela Stiver, a faculty lecturer at McGill University in Montreal, Québec, couldn’t find something similar for anatomical structures, it struck a nerve.

The findings, reported today in Science Advances, could have important implications for food safety in the agro-industry.
