Summary	This basic human anatomy component is a core constituent of the course and runs throughout semesters 1 and 2. In practice it is subdivided into 2 distinct courses (Fundamentals of Human Anatomy 1 and 2), which are separately assessed. Students will carry out, at a basic level, a virtual dissection of an area of the body using Primal Pictures software. Augmented reality software currently being developed collaboratively between Edinburgh College of Art and SBMS (Anatomy) will also be used. This is being designed with this course in mind.
