In this course, we have attempted to present succinct videos of human anatomy. Some will find these images to be disturbing and these images carry a need to respect the individual who decided to donate their remains to benefit our teaching and learning.
All of the dissections depicted in the following videos are from individuals who gave their remains to be used in the advancement of medical education and research after death to the Yale School of Medicine.
The sequence of videos is divided into classic anatomic sections. Each video has a set of learning objectives and a brief quiz at the end. Following each section, there is another quiz covering the entire section in order for you to test your knowledge.
We hope these videos will help you better understand the human form, make time that you may have in the laboratory more worthwhile if you have that opportunity, and help you develop an appreciation of the wonderful intricacies of people.
