  • To produce CAI NEUROANATOMY (Text&Atlas) 10 volumes, 44 chapters.

  • To produce CAI HISTOLOGY (Atlas) 18 Chapters, 292 color illustrations, with captions.

  • To produce CAI EMBRYOLOGY : Development of CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM (Block 3).

Primarily, the production of CAI teaching materials means to increase basic knowledge of Anatomy in all levels, which has been reduced in the new Medical Science program : the BLOCK SYSTEM, as well as to enhance complete knowledge, equivalent to other Medical Schools (Siriraj, Khonkhen, Chiangmai etc) whose Medical programs still rely on conventional Medical Science curriculum focusing on lectures, practice and cadaveric dissections throughout the academic year.
