Description
A series of human embryology and anatomy podcasts linked to the teaching at the Swansea University College of Medicine, but hopefully helpful to all students with an interest in how we are made.
36 Episodes

We've had a bit of a break while we've been writing a book, but consultant opthalmologist Mr Mike Austin asked if he could record a podcast about the anatomy of the eye in preparation for his teaching week. We talk about the importance of the eye clinically, and relate the anatomy of the eye to loss of vision and other pathology..
Sam broke his foot so decided to talk about some important aspects of the anatomy of the lower limb. Sam and Rhi talk about the bones of the foot and ankle, the knee, the sciatic nerve, veins and compartments of the thigh and leg. This episode includes a number of annotated images of plastic models and Sam's leg.
Sam and Rhi finish talking about some key pelvic anatomy by talking about the ducting of the vas deferens into the urethra, what the os is, the relationships of organs within the female pelvis and their ligaments, and the sensory innervation from the external genitalia.
We pick 10 key anatomical things that we think are particularly worth knowing, this time in the pelvis. This is the first part and we talk about levator ani, the sciatic nerve, anastomoses in the female pelvis, the ureters, and the autonomic nervous system in the male pelvis.
Rhi and Sam change format to talk about anatomy and cover 10 key areas of the gastrointestinal system that you should know about if you're a medical student.
We talk about the development of the ear and its different parts.
We spend half an hour talking about how the eye forms from the developing brain and overlying ectoderm.
Rhiannon and Sam draw together the idea of germ layers that we spoke about in the early podcasts with the development of the systems that we've talked about since.
Sam draws a quick diagram of the parts of the brachial plexus that you often see laid out in textbooks.
Rhiannon records her last pocast before moving back to England..
Sam and Rhiannon finally get around to the development of the nervous system, and talk about neurulation, development of the brain, the ventricles, the spinal cord, and the spinal nerves.
Rhiannon and Sam look at the cervical plexus in the neck very briefly, highlighting the roots and some of the key nerves.
Here's our second video podcast. Rhiannon paints the borders of the anterior triangle of the neck and some of the important structures within on Sam's neck.
We're adding to the embryology audio podcast series with some anatomy videos. In our first video podcast Rhiannon runs through the boundaries of the posterior triangle of the neck and highlights some important structures by painting them on Sam's neck.
Rhiannon tells us how ova develop and how great Double Decker chocolate bars are.
We talk about the structures within each of the pharyngeal arches and what they will form into. We also link to cardiovascular embryology and mention Chuck Norris.
>We talk about the process and stages of spermatogenesis from spermatogonia to spermatozoa, and briefly discuss elephants.
1To complete our discussion of the developing cardiovascular system we call on Dr Geraint Morris again to help explain what changes normally occur with birth. We also find out about the many problems and complications that he sees when these changes don't occur quite as they should.
We continue to talk about the development of the cardiovascular system by discussing how the heart forms, and how it becomes split into four chambers.
We talk about the initial formation of the cardiovascular system, and discuss the development of some of the major arteries and veins, comparing embryological and foetal structures with those of the adult.
