What if students remembered more by learning how the brain connects?
“Emphasising neural connections and their functional outcomes helps simplify neuroanatomy and improve understanding and retention.”
After a one-month delay, they remembered more!
This research, Described neural connections enhance classroom learning of neuroanatomy (Hindy et al., 2025) suggests that teaching students how brain regions are connected – rather than in isolation – leads to stronger long-term memory and better application in real-world scenarios.
For decades, neuroanatomy teaching has
