To be an artist during the Renaissance was, for many, to be an anatomist. Is this still true today? And do Leonardo da Vinci’s anatomical drawings have any relevance to contemporary medical practice?

Speakers:

Peter Abrahams, Professor of Clinical Anatomy, Warwick Medical School

Stephen Farthing, Rootstein Hopkins Professor of Drawing, University of the Arts London

Marina Wallace, Director of Artakt, Central Saint Martins College of Arts and Design
