Description: | The University's medical collections are of very significant historic value, providing a nationally important record of the history and development of medicine from the late 19th century throughout the 20th century. The pathology collections compliment the University's other medical collections notably ethnography and anatomy and external collections such as the Aberdeen Medico - Chirurgical society (Scotland's oldest medical society, with which we have close ties) and the Grampian Police Museum and archives. The major strength of the collection, comprise wet preparations of human tissue that provide a comprehensive reference for pathological conditions that cover a range of bodily functions. The wet pathology specimens have strongly associated contextual information in the form of anonymous clinical files that allow the pathology to be viewed in its clinical context. Many of the fluid preserved samples are accompanied by supporting material such as weapons and photographic evidence.
