At the General Assembly of the 19th International Federation of Associations of Anatomists Congress held in London in 2019, a decision was made to declare October 15th of each year as World Anatomy Day. Recognizing the significance of Andreas Vesalius’s contributions, the IFAA designated his death (October 15) anniversary as World Anatomy Day, ensuring that the legacy of this foundational science continues to be celebrated worldwide through various events. The preservation and transmission of valuable traditions are crucial for ensuring that future generations can gain a deeper understanding of the past and present. Consequently, the organization and dissemination of World Anatomy Day activities should be considered a fundamental responsibility for all anatomists.
