Episode 346 hosts Lucas de Siqueira (Cosmetic Physician from Melbourne, Australia)

We discuss the purpose of cadaver learning for injectors and how these courses are typically run. Lucas explains his background in anatomy and how he became a cadaver course educator. We highlight how this type of learning is usually run, with interactive practical sessions that incorporate practical injectable concepts and techniques.

Importantly we also cover the themes of ethics, the respectful handling of donated human tissue and recognising how special this resource is. We end with details of the upcoming cadaver course linked to the AAS conference in Perth, Australia in May.
