The National Museum of Scotland has announced the Saturday debut of a major new exhibition in Edinburgh titled Anatomy: A Matter of Death and Life.
From art to science to medicine and crime, the intersectional exhibit will take visitors through the history of anatomical study into the present, exploring the human cost of medical advancements.
“Anatomy: A Matter of Death and Life will examine the social and medical history surrounding the practice of dissection of human bodies. It looks at Edinburgh’s role as an international centre for medical study and offers insight into the links between science and crime in the early 19th century,” a press release announced.
