In this episode, we’re joined by Malcolm MacCallum, Curator of the Anatomical Museum at the University of Edinburgh, and Thomas Elliott, Head of Surgeons Hall Museum, as they explore the origins of the world's oldest medical school in the English-speaking world. Inspired by our latest exhibition, this episode uncovers the innovations behind Edinburgh’s medical success, the growth of its anatomical collections, and how the human cost of that progress is being reassessed today.
