Human Developmental Anatomy Center
The following information are excerpts from the Guide to Collections (2014) p198 - 201.
HDAC 1 Arey-Dapeña Pediatric Pathology Collection
- 24 boxes, 5 binders.
- Finding aid, restricted, digitized.
- Over 6,000 lantern slides of various pediatric pathologies, represented by both gross and histological images, created by Marie (Molly) Valdes-Dapeña at the University of Miami.
- All slides have been digitized and a searchable database is available.
HDAC 2 AFIP Sudden Infant Death Collection
- A collection of wet tissue blocks sealed in plastic, glass slides, and detailed case histories documenting cases of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.
- Materials were originally acquired in the 1970s and 1980s at the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.
HDAC 2.5 Birth Defects Encyclopedia
- Records and photographs used to compile the Birth Defects Encyclopedia by Mary Louise Buyse.
- A printed copy of the 1892-page encyclopedia and an electronic file used to produce the print version are included in the collection.
HDAC 3 Carnegie Collection Of Embryology
- This collection consists principally of serial sections of normal human embryo development in the first eight weeks, as started by the Carnegie Institution of Washington’s Department of Embryology in 1914.
- The collection now forms the core of the Human Developmental Anatomy Center.
- Extensive collateral materials include case histories, photographs, micrographs, models in various media, and comparative materials (mostly rhesus).
- Reprints from the Carnegie Contributions to Embryology, other reprints relating to embryology, films, and personal documents are also available.
- This collection incorporates other embryo collections, such as the Davis Orthopedic Development and Elizabeth Mapelsden Ramsey Collections.
- Partially digitized.
HDAC 3 Davis Orthopedic Development Collection
- Part of the Carnegie Collection of Embryology added while curated at the University of California, Davis.
- A large collection of glass slides charting bone growth and development in the human.
- Slides are grouped by structure starting with the head and moving down through the torso and out the extremities.
HDAC 3 Hertig Videos
- Six VHS tapes of lectures given by Dr. Arthur T. Hertig, an embryologist who worked extensively with the Carnegie materials.
- The tapes include two each of: trophoblastic disease, malignant disease of the uterus, and ovarian tumors.
- See also OHA 189, Hertig Collection.
HDAC 4 Cornell School Of Veterinary Med. Embryological Collection
* About 150 boxes, 12 binders.
- From the Cornell School of Veterinary Medicine in Ithaca, NY this collection includes human, rat, mouse and guinea pig embryos.
- There is still a large collection of embryonic material at Cornell.
HDAC 5 Gaensler Pulmonary Pathology Collection
- A collection of radiographic images and case histories of lung diseases, primarily asbestosis.
- Transferred to the Archives in November 2008 as OHA 163.55.
HDAC 6 Hooker-Humphrey Collection
- Originally compiled at the University of Pittsburgh by Davenport Hooker (1887-1965) and Tryphena Humphrey (1902-1971), this collection came to the Museum via the University of Alabama.
- This collection of human and comparative material is stained to highlight nervous system development.
- Sizes of specimens range from 3mm to 310mm. For those wishing to study the development of the human nervous system from birth through maturity to old age.
- This collection is a bridge between the Carnegie Collection focusing on the first eight weeks of development and the neonatal to adult material in the Yakovlev-Haleem Collection.
- http://brainmuseum.org
HDAC 7 Charles Sedgwick Minot Embryological Collection
- Embryos from the Harvard School of Medicine, as well as drawings and photographs of the embryos.
- A large collection of reprints, printed lectures, class syllabi, and theses on embryology and related topics.
- The reprint collection was started by Charles S. Minot (1852-1914) in the 1800s and added to through the 1960s.
- The reprint collection also includes personal papers and research notes from Charles Wislocki.
- Finding aid, arranged?
HDAC 8 Elizabeth Mapelsden Ramsey Collection
- Reprints, personal papers, correspondence, research notes, and artifacts from Elizabeth Mapelsden Ramsey.
- Ramsey was a former curator of the Carnegie Collection, as well as a researcher, lecturer, and teacher.
- The collection is subsumed by the Carnegie Collection of Embryology, HDAC 3.
HDAC 9 Sensenig Collection
- A small set of comparative material on glass slides from the University of Alabama, compiled by E. Carl Sensenig.
- Arrived along with the Hooker Humphrey comparative materials.
HDAC 10 Patten- Burdi Collection
- This is a collection of sectioned embryos and fetuses, focused on the second and third trimesters.
- It includes histology sections, reprints, paste-ups for various editions of Patten's Embryology, 2 whole mounts in celloidin, records, and photographic materials.
- Alphonse Burdi was the last curator of the collection at University of Michigan and organized its donation to the museum.
- The Embryology Research Collection at Michigan was established by embryologists George Streeter and G. Carl Huber in the early 1900s with a mission to collect and describe the morphogenesis of human embryos at critical stages in prenatal life.
- For about twenty years up to 1957, the Collection grew in numbers under the leadership of Professor Bradley M. Patten whose primary interests were in heart and cardiovascular development.
