Malaysian Anatomical Association

Malaysian Anatomical Association This is the official page for Malaysian Anatomical Association (MAA) However, the association did not have much activities.

Malaysian Anatomical Association (MAA) was first established in October 2003 during the 1st Malaysian Anatomical Conference, which was held in Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) in Kubang Kerian, Kelantan, Malaysia. At that time, Profesor Dr. Othman Mansor was elected as the first chairman of the Ad-Hoc committee of MAA. The 2nd Anatomical Conference was held in June 2011 in Universiti Teknologi MARA

(UiTM) in Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia. The conference managed to re-established the Ad-Hoc committee with a total of 7 members elected. The committee included anatomists from Kuala Lumpur and different states of Malaysia (Selangor, Perak, Kuantan, Sarawak, Kedah). Many years gone by without much of activities. For the third time, an Ad-Hoc meeting was organised by Department of Anatomy, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. This was followed by the success of the First Annual General Meeting, organised at Faculty of Medicine, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia on the 21st September 2013. The AGM was attended by many anatomists from all over Malaysia. The MAA Committee Members for the session of 2013-2015 were finally elected. Meetings were carried out immediately to establish, plan and keep the ball rolling for MAA.

🧠🔬 Inspiring Young Minds Through Anatomy and STEM Education! 🌱✨
The Malaysian Anatomical Association (MAA) was honoured to collaborate with Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) in the CSR programme "The Inbestigators@Tuaran: Jom Sihat Bah 7 – Borneo Bright Minds", held at SK Termunong, Tuaran, Sabah.
Our team conducted an exciting STEM Explorace for Primary 1–6 students, featuring interactive anatomy demonstrations, hands-on activities, and fun quizzes designed to cultivate curiosity and a love for science. Through engaging stations and teamwork, the students enthusiastically explored scientific concepts while learning through play. Their energy, curiosity, and active participation made the programme a truly rewarding experience.
Following the school programme, members of the Malaysian Anatomical Association had the opportunity to visit the Medical Museum at Universiti Malaysia Sabah, where we explored the museum's impressive collection of anatomical specimens and educational exhibits. We extend our sincere appreciation to the UMS team for the warm hospitality and insightful tour.
This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to promoting STEM education, anatomical sciences, and community engagement while inspiring the next generation of scientists and healthcare professionals.
A heartfelt thank you to Universiti Malaysia Sabah, SK Termunong, all organisers, volunteers, and participants for making this meaningful outreach programme a great success. We look forward to many more impactful collaborations in the future.

🎉 Anatomy Research Network Series (ARNS) No. 2/2026 Successfully Concluded!
The Malaysian Anatomical Association (MAA) would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation to Dr. Yasith Mathangasinghe from Monash University for delivering an inspiring and insightful session entitled:
"Empowering Rural Anatomy Education Through Scalable Gamification."
The session introduced participants to innovative approaches in anatomy education, particularly the use of virtual escape rooms and gamification as scalable teaching strategies to enhance student engagement, motivation, and learning outcomes, especially in resource-limited settings.
We sincerely thank Dr. Yasith for generously sharing his expertise, practical experiences, and valuable perspectives with our anatomy education community.
We would also like to thank all participants for your enthusiastic attendance and active participation. Your support continues to make the Anatomy Research Network Series a valuable platform for collaboration and knowledge sharing.
