The aim of this project was to create a prosected specimen that demonstrates the integration of the central and peripheral nervous system with the maintenance of key anatomical landmarks for use as an educational resource. In this dissection, the brain, brainstem, spinal cord, eyes, and optic nerves and tracts were removed along with spinal roots and peripheral nerves so that the majority of the nervous system can be appreciated. Select landmarks were preserved to illustrate key anatomical relationships and provide context to peripheral nerve pathways. Here we describe the educational significance and value of this specimen for various levels of neuroanatomy education.
