Instructor Information
Quick Actions (Only for Validated Instructor Accounts):
Designed for the one-semester anatomy and physiology course, Hole's Essentials of Human Anatomy and Physiology assumes no prior science knowledge and supports core topics with clinical applications, making difficult concepts relevant to students pursuing careers in the allied health field. The Learn, Practice, and Access system is used throughout the text and digital content for immediate application. "Learning" outcomes begin the chapter and set the stage for what students will learn, "Practice" questions conclude each major section and help students recall the information they’ve consumed, and "Assess" end-of-chapter resources allow students to confirm their accurate recall of what they learned and practiced. The learn, practice, and assess system is highly effective in providing students with a solid understanding of the important concepts in anatomy and physiology.

Charles Welsh began his Anatomy & Physiology teaching career upon graduating with a B.S. in Biology from the University of Pittsburgh in 1989. He entered graduate school in 1992 and continued teaching night classes. He accepted his first full-time teaching position at Clarion University of Pennsylvania in 1996. In 1997, he completed his Ph.D. in Comparative Anatomy, Evolutionary Biology, and Ornithology at the University of Pittsburgh. Teaching primarily in nursing and other allied health programs, he now brings his thirty years of classroom experience to the fifteenth edition of Hole’s Essentials of Human Anatomy & Physiology. At Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania he received several teaching awards, as well as the Mentor of the Year Award for training graduate students to teach Anatomy & Physiology. Chuck and his wife, Lori, have three children and three grandchildren. They live in the historic town of Harmony, thirty miles north of Pittsburgh, with their youngest son, where they raise chickens and have a huge garden.
