University of Aberdeen Anatomy Museum
University of Aberdeen Anatomy Museum
Established in the 1870s, the Anatomy Museum has a wide-ranging collection used extensively for medical teaching and training, including skeletal material, fluid-preserved specimens of human tissue, historical and modern models and works on paper. Of special interest are a set of 19th century anatomical watercolours and a series of anatomical drawings by Alberto Morrocco.
Items from the collection are on display in the Anatomy Museum, but access to the collection is restricted by the Anatomy Act (1984) as amended by the Human Tissue (Scotland) Act 2006. Contact the museum for further details.
