The currently available human embryos and fetuses, especially the 3500 plus documented specimens collected since 1972 are chiefly second and third trimester aborti. This group is a part of the 1,750 specimens that are currently available as serially-sectioned specimens. While the Patten Embryology Collection continues with its longstanding focus on human morphogenesis, an adjunct collection of serially-sectioned animal (e.g., chick, rats, mice) embryos and fetuses is also available for comparative studies. Every effort is made to accommodate visiting investigators. Located in the Department of Anatomy & Cell Biology, space and equipment are available for the study of specimens within the research facility.
