About
Paul G. McMenamin is a pioneering anatomist and educator whose research sits at the intersection of anatomical sciences, medical education, and surgical training innovation. He is best known for his visionary work on the future of surgical education, particularly his leadership of the FOS:TEST Commission, which produced the landmark report "Future of Surgery: Technology Enhanced Surgical Training" (2022). This influential work, already garnering 8 citations, provides a comprehensive roadmap for integrating emerging technologies—from virtual reality to advanced simulation—into surgical curricula, addressing the critical gap between technological capability and coordinated educational implementation. Beyond this, McMenamin has made enduring contributions to the understanding of human anatomy, including foundational studies on the structure and function of the lymphatic system and the microanatomy of the eye. His impact extends through decades of teaching and curriculum development, shaping how anatomy is taught to medical students worldwide. A Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh and a recipient of numerous teaching awards, McMenamin’s work continues to guide how technology can transform surgical training for the next generation of clinicians.
