The brain is a complex organ composed of billions of neurons that controls every process within the body including thought, memory, emotion, movement, touch, breathing, vision, and hunger. Explore the various structures involved in these processes and discuss how neurons communicate within the brain while dissecting a sheep brain in this course. We will also look the human brain and nervous system.
The nervous system is just one topic in Experience Anatomy’s 4-part dissection series intended to explore the wonders of the human body. The entire series will expose participants to the cardiovascular, nervous, visual and digestive system. Participants will assess their own physiology, examine preserved human organs, and dissect animal tissue to ensure ideas are processed in an interactive format.
Course material is intended for learners ages 12-18 and parents are encouraged to accompany younger participants. Join us to Experience Anatomy!
The Discovering Anatomy Dissection Series is sponsored by Culture Blocks – a community partnership funded by Mecklenburg County.
