Challenges in studying neuroanatomy in sub-Saharan Africa: The case of Cameroon
Challenges in neuroanatomy education in Cameroon are perceived to arise from insufficient hands-on learning, time constraints, and limited access to specialised faculty. These suggest interactive teaching, increased curriculum time, and diverse resources as potential improvements, though further research is needed to assess their effectiveness and ultimately improve understanding, fostering a stronger neurological workforce.
