Katja has taught a wide variety of courses in biology and was integrally involved in designing and implementing the Bachelor of Science major in Health Science. Over the past few years, Katja has co-authored several Anatomy and Physiology textbooks. This endeavor allows her to combine her expertise in research, clinical medicine, and the classroom, and to extend her teaching to a much wider audience.
