    Dana Rohde, PhD is a Professor of Anatomy and Physiology. She earned her doctorate degree in Dr. Allan Basbaum's lab in 1996, studying spinal cord mechanisms of opioid tolerance and dependence. Dr. Rohde teaches anatomy in all of the first and second year medical school blocks. She also teaches anatomy relevant to nerve blocks to anesthesiology residents. She created the Advanced Head and Neck elective for 4th year medical students going into head and neck specialties. She directs the ABC (Airways, Breathing, and Circulation) block in the Bridges curriculum.

    Dr. Rohde was inducted into the Academy of Medical Educators with the inaugural class in 2001. In 2018, she was appointed the AME Sexton Sutherland Endowed Chair in Human Anatomy. She created a series of workshops integrating yoga with anatomy. These workshops cover musculoskeletal anatomy, peripheral neuropathies vs radiculopathies, as well as neuroanatomy and the neurological exam. She has taught these workshops to medical students, physical therapy students and faculty, and medical residents.
