Historically the only way to see inside the human body was after death, during an autopsy. Since the late 70s, technologies such as MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) allow for non-invasive imaging and even researching the workings of the living brain. How do changing ways of viewing our anatomies affect scientific research and understandings of humanity? And what understandings of the inside might other modalities, beside vision, offer us?
Join us next Tuesday 22nd June at 18.30 for Inside the Body, featuring medical historian Ruth Richardson, neuroscientist Geraint Rees, and anthropologist Tom Rice.
