Dr. Erin Fillmore is the Head of Anatomy and Biomedical Senior Lecturer at the University of Buckingham Medical School in Buckingham, England. Her research interests include examining the anatomical competency of newly qualified doctors, studying the underlying non-academic factors which influence the development of anatomical knowledge, and investigating medical students' implicit theories of intelligence (ITI) and grit in order to better understand how these characteristics impact student behaviours and learning outcomes in gross anatomy.

Yasmin Carter Ph.D. is an Assistant Professor of Translational Anatomy at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. Dr. Carter completed her Ph.D. at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada, her Master's at the University of Manitoba, Canada and her undergraduate studies at the University of Bristol England. Her interests focus on using anatomy as a keystone for teaching transgender healthcare content and best practices to medical students and professionals. More specifically, her work is largely focused on reducing prejudice and increasing access to healthcare for transgender people/patients. She also runs the Innovations Lab at UMASS Medical School, a 'maker-space' dedicated to creative and out-of-the-box thinking in medical pedagogy, utilizing 3d printing and simulation. Additionally, Dr. Carter conducts research in the fields of bone biology and human osteology, and personally, she believes they are the coolest part of anatomy Dr. Carter currently serves on the Committee for Early Career Anatomists (CECA) of the American Association of Anatomists (AAA) and the Career Development Committee (CDC) of the American Association of Clinical Anatomists (AACA). Dr. Carter serves as a core anatomy faculty member in both the lab and lecture hall in the Development, Structure, and Function (DSF) course for first-year medical students. She also lectures in Anatomy for Forensic Anthropologists, at Boston University School of Medicine. She lives with her giant Alaskan Malamute, in the Victorian home she is currently renovating - one YouTube video at a time. You can find her on twitter at @akhenisis.
