The Anatomy Club is excited to host its Spring Seminar featuring Mr. James Dinnan of Farmington High School.
Mr. Dinnan will present a talk entitled “Anatomy through History: Dissecting our Understanding of the Human Body.” The seminar will take place on Friday, April 10 from 4–5 p.m. in Dana Hall, room 232.
This seminar will offer a unique interdisciplinary perspective, exploring how historical developments have shaped our understanding of human anatomy. Drawing from his background in history and education, Mr. Dinnan will examine how scientific knowledge of the human body has evolved over time and how cultural, educational, and societal factors have influenced anatomical discovery and teaching.
Mr. Dinnan brings more than a decade of teaching experience and has taught a wide range of courses including AP World History Modern and AP Human Geography. He is also actively involved in curriculum development and extracurricular leadership as a debate team coach and faculty advisor.
Attendees will gain insight into the intersection of history, science, and education, and how these fields inform our current understanding of anatomy. This event is ideal for students interested in anatomy, history, education, or interdisciplinary studies. All are welcome—no prior experience required.
