The Evolution of Embryology Education

Dr Mark Hill

Position of the Uterus and Fetus at Term (1872)

Introduction

Embryology is a cornerstone of both Medical Education for medical students and Developmental Biology for science students. In this presentation I will explore how the teaching of Embryology has evolved in our Medical School with the entry into the digital age and the expansion of new teaching and research techniques.

This entire presentation will remain available online if you would like to explore in your own time!
