Coursera course on anatomy of the abdomen and pelvis

I recently mentioned a certain OAH webviewer short paper that was accepted as a EuroGraphics Education paper, but I now have some more news to share: the webviewer will be used in a Coursera course on anatomy of the abdomen and pelvis that starts this week, entitled ‘Anatomy of the Abdomen and Pelvis; a journey from basis to clinic.’! This course is a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC), a free online course aimed at unlimited participation, and organized by highly qualified people at the Leiden University Medical Center.

So far, already 7,796 people signed up. If you also have an interest in anatomy, why not sign up yourself? It’s completely free and completely awesome, I promise! I do have to add, it is not for the faint of heart, since it features live anatomical dissection videos. I am following the course myself and really enjoying the classes. I even just passed my first quiz with 100% correct answers. Try and beat that 😉

Soon, you could be playing around with this yourself:

Looking forward to seeing you as my virtual classmates in the course 🙂
