Chisa Hidaka, MD '86 teaches Barnard students the fundamentals of human anatomy, but not in the traditional way; she uses movement and dance to help students better understand the body. "When you see someone dancing, you are really seeing anatomy in action," she says.
For her anatomy lab, her class painted the skeleton on unitards to learn the names of bones and where they are in the body.
Watch above to see how she's merging dance and biology in the classroom.
