The AESIG serves as a forum for those teaching anatomy in physical therapy (PT and PTA) educational programs. We seek to foster awareness of best practices in anatomy education, and to provide anatomy educators with tools to enhance their work. Developing relationships with others teaching anatomy content can provide mentorship to novice faculty, promote research collaboration, and facilitate exchange of ideas. We strive to increase awareness of available resources, and active involvement in the Academy and other anatomy related professional associations.

  • Provide an on-line network for the exchange of information related to physical therapist anatomy education.

  • Foster mentoring relationships between experienced and novice faculty teaching anatomy in physical therapist education programs.
