Since August 1, 2011, the Department of Human Anatomy is headed by M.D., Professor N.N. Medvedeva.

Scientific and Educational Center (SEC) “Morphology and physiology of a healthy person” works under the head of N.N. Medvedeva. The strategy of SEC has been developed in such foreground areas as nano-systems industry and life sciences.

The main scientific directions of the department are: 1) integrated use of modern technologies in personified assessment of human somatoneuropsychophysiological health, including methods of assessing physical (anthropometry, bioimpedansometry) and neuropsychophysiological (electroencephalography, dermatoglyphic scanning) status of a person; 2) morphology of postcranial skeleton; 3) paleoanthropology; 4) nanotechnology.

Anatomical Museum at the Department of Human Anatomy of KrasSMU is one of the best medical museums in the East Siberian region. The museum’s fund contains not only more than 1,500 exhibits in all sections of anatomy, but also it has a number of unique paleoanthropology, teratology, and comparative anatomy collections. The Anatomical Museum is in popular not only among medical students, confirming a well-known saying: “Natura non sunt turpia” – “Nothing natural is shameful”.

Laboratory of Biomedical Microscopy and Morphometry was opened at the Department of Human Anatomy. There is also scientific Laboratory of Biophysical Research Methods. An integrated interaction with other departments of Krasnoyarsk State Medical University on morphological assessment of the researches has been worked through. Formation of young specialists’ pool is formed through pre-graduate internship “Morphology of humans and animals normally and in case of pathology”.

Annually, students’ scientific works are presented for contests named after such scientists as Prof. M.G. Prives, Prof. I.I. Gitelzon, Prof. P.G. Podzolkov.

Nowadays, the Department of Human Anatomy is a friendly team of like-minded people, creative educators and researchers, comprising 19 employees, including: 6 professors and doctors of sciences, 8 associate professors, 3 senior teachers and 2 assistants. The scientific degree of the department staff is 84%.

The Vanderbilt Museum

The Vanderbilt Museum on Long Island in Suffolk County, New York, USA is housed in the mansion once owned by William K. Venderbilt II (the great-grandson of Cornelius Vanderbilt, founder of the New York Central Railroad and the Staten Island Ferry). "Willie K." was an avid sailor and collector. He traveled around the globe, collecting artifacts and natural history specimens, some from the ocean floor by Willie K. himself, as he loved to dive.



His will provided for donation of his property to the county, with provision that the mansion and grounds be used for a museum for his marine, natural history, and ethnographic collections; the natural history institution was established during 1950. Developing a museum that interprets Vanderbilt's life, times, and collections, the county constructed a planetarium on the grounds during 1970.



The Vanderbilt Museum has something for everyone. Beautiful sprawling grounds for the horticultural enthusiast, an insect collection for the entomology buff, a Spanish Revival mansion known as the Eagle’s Nest for lovers of architecture, taxidermy for the natural historian, a 3000 year old mummy for the historian, and best of all a huge collection of marine specimens. The “Hall of Fishes” boasts one of the largest privately held collections of marine specimens in the world, not to mention the mounted whale shark, at 32 feet long, the largest fish taxidermy in the world.

A sprawling and eccentric collection, centered around the house and estate of Willie K. Vanderbilt, it represents the mind of a man who was curious about everything and could afford to investigate it all.



In this process of shrinking, the head is cut off at the base of the neck, the skull is skinned out, and the eyelids and mouth sewed together. The skin is then filled with hot sand and manipulated until reduced to desired size.

The museum was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on September 26, 1985.
