The next stage of the project “Learn the secrets of the human body in the anatomical theater of the 21st century” – the purchase of anatomical models

We are very pleased to announce the implementation of the next stage of our project “Learn the secrets of the human body in the anatomical theater of the 21st century”. As part of the ministerial subsidy, a set of educational models was purchased, which will be widely used in promoting knowledge about the structure of the human body. Our new acquisitions will be available to both students preparing for academic classes and all visitors to the newly established anatomical museum theater. Phantoms will be used during workshops and educational lectures aimed at children, adolescents and adults as well. We are therefore looking forward to the opening – as soon as the epidemiological situation allows – our new educational space, and we encourage all interested students to apply to the Museum of the History of Medicine of the Medical University of Warsaw to be able to take advantage of our new acquisitions (muzeum@wum.edu.pl) ).

 

We cordially invite you to see our gallery showing all the phantoms!

 

The anatomical models were purchased as part of the project ” Uncover the secrets of the human body in an anatomical theater of the 21st century “, co-financed by the program

“Social Responsibility of Science” run by the Minister of Science and Higher Education.

 

We cordially invite you to the virtual exhibition entitled: “Famous pathologists throughout history – from the eighteenth to the twentieth century”. On 23  museum boards, we present the profiles of famous pathologists – both Polish and foreign ones, whose achievements significantly contributed to the development of medicine in the eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth centuries. We have dedicated one board to each of them. Some of the people featured here are characters most of us know little about, or have probably never heard of. Therefore, we will briefly look at their achievements, identify their contribution to medical practice and try to show the context of their discoveries. We hope you will like this form of presenting the profiles of people whose discoveries and research have changed both world and Polish medicine forever.

The exhibition design was prepared by the Museum of the History of Medicine of the Medical University of Warsaw. The graphic design was prepared by Katarzyna Ośko in cooperation with Piotr Berezowski.
