References Overview & Approach

This page contains a complete list of sources used in the creation of westernanatomy.com, with articles grouped by publication and sorted alphabetically (by title) within. This page may be updated over time.

Kenhub was the primary source of information for many major regions, in addition to PubMed, Cleveland Clinic, Radiopaedia (contained many obscure, lesser-researched regions), Britannica, two physical textbooks in my possession, miscellaneous lab videos, and a brilliant, comprehensive dissection video series from the University of Utah. If not from the aforementioned publications, information came from a legitimate medical journal or a similarly credible .org/.edu, as listed below. Because the brain is the most complex, intricate organ in the human body, a quality library must be built from credible information. For this reason, any websites using AI-generated/summarized data were deliberately excluded to steer clear of potential inaccuracies. Some entries cite multiple articles from different publications, despite being about the same structure—simply put, if the information was relevant and contributed to my writing, it received a citation.

Most of my undergraduate work has focused on creating tools to improve the accessibility and quality of educational resources in the field of neuroscience with fellow students in mind. After I complete my bachelor of science, I plan to continue working toward a master's degree in the field of neuroscience at a larger university.
