Anatomical models made from ivory, c.1700. Both figures have removable torsos to show the internal organs. The female figure is also pregnant and a fetus is shown.

The level of anatomical detail is limited but gives a basic layout of the main organs. As such it is likely that the model was used to teach lay people about basic human anatomy. They also may have been used to teach young married couples about pregnancy. #histmed #histsci #sciart #anatomy #MedMastodon #medicine

A team of #researchers mapping a #molecular atlas for ductal carcinoma in situ (#DCIS) has made a major advance toward distinguishing whether the early pre-cancers in the #breast will develop into invasive #cancers or remain stable.

The Surgeons' Hall Riot happened #OTD in 1870. The Edinburgh Seven arrived at Surgeons' Hall to sit their anatomy exam and were met by a crowd of male students and several hundred onlookers who opposed of women studying medicine. Not to be deterred the women went on to sit their exam.
After not being allowed to graduate at the time the group were posthumously awarded their medical degrees from Edinburgh University in 2019.

Citizen-led #expeditions have a unique role in fostering close connections between the public and the scientific community. @OctoEduardo advocates for greater support and encouragement for citizen-led projects, like #CaptainDarwin.

Carbon dioxide (#CO2) can be removed from the #atmosphere by natural or technical means. Natural sinks such as #peatlands can be restored, and innovative technologies already exist to extract carbon from the air.

Scientists get clearer picture of developing teen brain

In a paper published in Progress in Neurobiology, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine neuroscientists described compelling new evidence of a critical neuroplasticity period in the frontal brain region during adolescence, a time when major mental illnesses such as depression and schizophrenia emerge and risk-taking behavior peaks.
