The BioDigital Human platform is a medically accurate, virtual map of the human body—composed of over 8,000 individually selectable anatomical structures, 600 simulated health conditions, and a toolkit to map and visualize data.  

Users can find BioDigital Human directly on the Library’s Discover platform, by searching for BioDigital Human in the Database A-Z or by clicking here. 

You can find guidance on how to use BioDigital Human here. Initial training for staff in key departments will take place on June 7 with further online training courses starting in September 2024; more information will be distributed ahead of time. 

This new resource will be replacing the Anatomy.tv resource. Access to Anatomy.tv will cease on the 26 June 2024. Any academic staff currently linking to Anatomy.tv on their module resource lists will be contacted individually by the library team. 

If you have any issues accessing the database, please contact the Electronic Resource Team at ertenq@gcu.ac.uk
