President Bio and Ministers Inspect Newly Installed Anatomage Equipment.Freetown, Sierra Leone.

The promise of an exciting new chapter of medical education and training has been unleashed in Sierra Leone as the President Dr. Julius Maada Bio, together with the Chief Minister, Dr. David Moinina Sengeh, and the Minister of Health, Dr. Austin Demby, jointly inspected a newly installed cutting-edge imaging equipment-Anatomage at the skills lab of College of Medicine and Allied Health Sciences (COMAHS).

This innovative tech-based human table provides an incredible platform for medical students to fully understand how the human anatomy works by having the opportunity to explore with the internal organs in real time. It revolutionizes the way the body is visualized, dissected and studied.

According to President Brio, this new equipment would provide an invaluable opportunity for future healthcare professionals to be the best versions of themselves and be able to compete anywhere in the world.

"This advanced equipment is a clear manifestation of my vision to invest in human capital development," he pointed out.

For President Bio, there is a direct correlation between health, national development and productivity.

That is why the Government, through its Ministry of Health and development partners, is investing heavily in healthcare infrastructure, education and training.

 Already, huge investments have been made in constructing modern-day hospitals in Freetown, Port Loko, Moyamba and elsewhere in the country.

The installation of this Anatomage is only one of many exciting things to come for COMAHS under the leadership of Dr. Austin Demby as Minister of Health.

Already, Dr. Demby and team are currently spearheading the construction of a modern day teaching complex with technologically advanced learning capabilities that will promote research and innovation.

The President was taken on a facilitated tour of the ongoing construction site of this ultra-modern facility that will house a new administrative block, lecture hall and skills lab.

 Upon completion, this multipurpose building will house the basic medical sciences faculty, administration, and skills lad. It is hoped that these will significantly expand and improve on COMAH'S training capabilities.
