Helpful in Cadaver Lab

Look familiar...its cadaver lab! Or dinner?

I deboned my first chicken about the same time that I had my first semester of cadaver lab. Kinda gross. But it was very helpful to learn how to cut a chicken in clean swipes rather than sawing motions. I used those same skills to clean the fascia off the organs and skin of the cadaver. If you happen to cooking a whole chicken, take the opportunity to cut out the bones and remove the skin. Your teammates in lab will appreciate how efficiently and effectively you are with the knife. Also, you will be able to identify when you need a new blade in the scalpel.
