Course Description:

Anatomy Trains and Laboratories of Anatomical Enlightenment present 1-Day Dissection Livestream Specialty Class: Brain, Spine, and Spinal Cord with Tom Myers and Todd Garcia

In this special one-day event, Master Dissector Todd Garcia and Anatomy Trains author Tom Myers will take you on a vivid tour of some of the deepest structures in human anatomy: the cranial nerves, brain, vertebral bodies and discs, and the spinal cord.

This course will be provided over zoom webinar with multiple camera views, live chat and Q&A. Recordings will be provided via password protected streaming access for 5 days.

This special dissection livestream format allows us to go more deeply into the relationships and applications to multiple manual and movement modalities, from athletic training to trauma resolution to osteopathy.

This course is open to all, but due to its advanced nature, some prior experience with dissection, especially our 4-day dissection livestream, is recommended.Module 1: Inner Structures of the Face, Spinal Cord – 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM EDTSinusesDental Arch/Hard palateJaw MusclesSpinal Dura Mater and MeningesConus MedularisCauda Equina and Spinal NervesVertebral Bodies and Discs.Module 2: Cranium, Brain, Cranial Nerves – 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM EDTCranial MeningesCerebriCerebellumFalx CerebriTentoriumCranial Nerves
