I am dedicated to advancing gross anatomy research across its full spectrum–from fundamental discovery to clinical contextualization and practical application. My work also focuses on refining anatomical communication through the lens of regulatory science to ensure precise, effective, and evidence-based knowledge sharing. A hallmark of my approach is active interdisciplinary collaboration. I frequently engage in joint research projects with experts across various fields.
