A-Z Course  20 (7 HR/CE)

Enjoy lifetime access to this online course.

In the 20th - and final - course of our journey “Anatomy from A to Z,” we explore the cranium and the skull.

This course includes a detailed exploration and dissection of the landmarks of the cranium, survey of cranial nerves, and overview of key structures of the brain. Structures identified include the cranial landmarks and sutures, meninges, cranial nerves, pineal and pituitary gland, optic chiasma, optometric points, sinuses, tentorium cerebelli, cerebellum, cerebrum, mammillary bodies, cerebral arteries, fornix, hippocampus, thalamus, amygdala, substantia nigra, red nucleus, cerebral peduncles and pons. Participants will first meet these structures in-situ and gain a greater appreciation of their contexts and relationships, then explore the brain ex-situ. Through this experience, participants will gain a detailed understanding of this most remarkable organ. Through cultivating a greater appreciation of the human form, participants will be better able to apply their anatomical knowledge to their bodywork and movement practices.
