Since spring 2023, biology professor Dr. Anahit Hovhannisyan has integrated VR technology into some of her classes to help students with visualization and memorization of the human brain anatomy.
Hovhannisyan, a neuroscientist who has taught at Fresno State for six years, is technology- and innovation-driven. She was already looking for a program in her neuroanatomy class to allow students to learn the human brain anatomy and explore real human brain case studies when she saw a syGlass VR demonstration at a Society for Neuroscience conference.
“We use it as a tool and the same can be said with technological improvements and artificial intelligence tools,” Hovhannisyan said. “All of those things need to be part of educating so students can use them as tools to improve their learning process and help them to learn easier.”
