- You might be interested in the first products from our Digital Anatomist
- program at the University of Washington. These are a video disc of 3-D
- human brain animations made from 3-D reconstructions of the brain, and a
- hypercard browser which allows a student to point to structures on 2-D
- brain slices, which then call up the relevant sequences on the video disk.
-
- The video disc is available now, and the browser will be ready in the
- fall. The contact person is:
