ANATOMY FRANK H. J. FIGGE, Ph. D. Head, Department of Anatomy Slides, scopes, skeletons, brain slices and stems are tools of freshmen medical students attempting to construct basic concepts of Anatomy. The human phenomenon is scru- tinized from aU levels of organization: Gene- tics, investigating the subcellular activities of the chromosomes; Microanatomy, elucidat- ing the significance of various tissue types; Neurological Sciences, elaborating on the sophisticated mechanism of the nervous sys- tem; and Gross Anatomy, capturing the sa- lient features of the various organ systems. Interspersed in the weekly routine Corre- lative Anatomy is scheduled to demonstrate the relevance of the basic anatomy courses to medical practice. During these sessions, clinicans from various specialities present cases— yes, real live patients — with diseases pertinent to current areas of study. Besides the anatomical value of these classes, much is learned of the responsibilities and goals of medicine. 9
