Welcome to a new and exciting Podcast called ANATOPOD designed to teach anatomy. ANATOPOD aims not just to teach anatomy well to a high and practical level but also to introduce the history of anatomy and dissection of the cadaver. I appreciate that anatomy is a visual tradition but it wasn't always like that. In the Renaissance, anatomy was taught from textbooks written by the Greek Galen in the first century A.D. Perhaps it might seem unusual to revert anatomy teaching to an aural basis but it is recognized too that in this modern age anatomy departments in universities all over the world are dispensing with their raision d’être, the cadaver, replacing it with surrogates and models. We still do not know the effects of this change on the care of our patients but what we do know is that the cadaver is part of our death culture as much as it touches so many other aspects of society at large.

Including the story of the tragic Pollard case and the horror of Georgian and Victorian infirmaries…..the great surgeons were the quickest, the average time for cutting the stone about one minute. The surgeon Robert Liston performed an amputation of someone’s leg in 28 seconds amputating not only the limb but also 3 of his assistant’s fingers in the process. The patient and the assistant died of sepsis 5 days later as did someone in the audience from a heart attack. It was the most mortal procedure ever performed!

I attach the remix to the first introduction of ANATOPOD – the anatomy podcast designed to teach anatomy well
I think 18 months after the launch of ANATOPOD, the imperative and the philosophy behind teaching anatomy as well as we possibly can is as strong and as resolute as ever. I am committed to reintroducing anatomy as a relevant subject that can be recalled in a simpler way and that is contextualized for practising surgeons and clinicians.
ANATOPOD is now in 80 countries so there is a clear need.
Please visit ANATOPOD podcasts and enjoy. If you like history then there is much to hear in the history of anatomy podcasts and in The Anatomy Cupboard (vignettes of the anatomists’ lives).
