This heat is the absolutely PERFECT time for anyone with Sophie Mackintosh's The Water Cure on their TBR ☀️ do it

Doubt that anyone even vaguely associated with anatomy, medicine, skeletons, funerals etc at the time didn't

Been talking about this for years: Skills wheels, compulsory team teaching, generic content that anyone can cover, modeled on Starbucks and stripping out the content of degrees to avoid a “single point of failure” (that’s management-speak for an academic off sick). This is how you kill HE.

Hate hate hate them. Every day there is more of this trash being shared by so called educators or health care professionals on LinkedIn. I despair

I'm delighted to finally share details of a workshop series I'm hosting with @thackraymuseum.bsky.social! 'Researchers in Museums' is open to a wide range of early career researchers and offers the opportunity to go 'behind the scenes' in a fantastic medical museum. Please share widely!

Researchers in Museums: Collections and Archives Workshop Series. Thackray Museum of Medicine, Leeds. 13 May; 18 June; 9 July; 1-4pm. I am delighted to be working with Thackray Museum of Medicine to host three workshops for ‘Researchers in Museums’. These interactive workshops offer early career researchers an opportunity to learn about the potential of museum collections to enrich their research. Each workshop will include:

‘Cancer in the Collections’: a unique insight into how one researcher, Dr Claire Turner (Durham University) uses Thackray’s extensive collections and archives to support her own research.
Stores Tour: an exclusive guided tour of Thackray’s stores by its Collections Team, with the opportunity to learn more about the history of the museum and the objects, books, and archival materials it holds.
Research Room Time: a chance to look in greater depth at books, objects and archival materials drawn from the museum’s collections.
Personal Research: option to request and view an object related to your own research.

Each session can accommodate up to 8 attendees, each of whom will receive a £20 bursary towards travel to the workshop.

To be eligible to attend, you must be:
An early career researcher (MA, PhD, or within two years of finishing the PhD)
Working broadly within the field of medical humanities

Expressions of interest should include a short summary of your research, how you meet the workshop criteria, and your preferred workshop date (max 250 words). All EOIs should be submitted to claire.o.turner@durham.ac.uk by 5pm on Friday 17 April.

Sounded fab and looks like a great turn out, I was sad not to be able to attend - 400 miles in the way! Id really be interested in an online workshop, please do let me know the details!

Had a really ✨ brilliant ✨ time being part of the Anatomy Late Anti-Valentines event on Thursday @thackraymuseum.bsky.social in Leeds, as part of their Under The Sheets Anatomical Illustration exhibit 🧠 🫀 🫁 🦷 🦴 👁️ 👅 . I encourage everyone to visit the exhibit but also the amazing museum in general!

Lucy Hyde @lucyformaldehyde.bsky.social · 08/02/2026

The male commentator literally says "I competed with a torn ACL back in 1985, it can be done and she's been proving that in qualification"........ But still the rhetoric continues

Oh brilliant! I was sad to not be able to make Frome today, glad to hear about Arnos Vale - count me in!

I wish the HTA would help control some of this. I don't believe that just because a bone is over 100 years it isn't covered by any laws, and can just be washed hands of, and left to personal ethics and morality. Somethibg needs to be done!

She's a cutie isn't she - boggly eyes, one ear up one ear down always. On her write up at the shelter she was described as looking 'goofy' which is so on point

I miss this silly Billy so much when she's not around, even though she's a goofy sassbag, contributes nothing to the rent, and takes up the whole bed #dogsofbluesky

Happy my abstract has been accepted for the @slsauk.bsky.social conference 🥳 I’ll be presenting on anatomical imaging: exploring how images of cadavers are managed, & how gaps in law & guidance leave decisions to individual's ethics & morality. Grateful to contribute to such important conversations

Lucy Hyde @lucyformaldehyde.bsky.social · 11/01/2026

You could. It was never official part of the uni, and anatomy classes were often private and could be run from anywhere by anyone, even at the start of the official medical school. Can recommend some great books on the history of the BRI and the museum collection if you're interested?

Lucy Hyde @lucyformaldehyde.bsky.social · 11/01/2026

He was anatomised under the murder act, dissected and kept by Richard Smith Jr, who ran private anatomy classes out of the old BRI and kept this in his personal collection, which formed a huge part of the BRIs museum, before being dispersed after air raids destroyed the building in the 40s

A thoughtful new short video from BBC Scotland highlights the importance of body donation with clarity and care. Scottish anatomy has a remarkable way of getting this right and Viv is the ideal voice to guide the public through such a vital, often misunderstood process. www.bbc.co.uk/videos/cd0kv...

What happens when you donate your body to science?

Human bodies have been studied and dissected for thousands of years, sometimes to extreme lengths. But what happens if you donate your body to science now?

Just 24 hours left for anyone who might like to grab a ticket, in person or online, for my talk tomorrow about body donation in Bristol, our silent teachers, and the memorialisation project to bring their faces back to life! 7pm online or in the beautiful Arnos Vale arnosvale.org.uk/bringing-the...

Only 5 days left to join my talk exploring the remarkable student project that reconstructed the face of one of our unknown silent teachers. It’s been an important step in memorialising and giving thanks to those who shaped our knowledge without recognition. arnosvale.org.uk/bringing-the...

11am on a Saturday, with little interest in starting the day. What a life. What a long way from the streets.

Lucy Hyde @lucyformaldehyde.bsky.social · 15/11/2025

Really interesting piece. I'm a super recogniser and have been involved in such studies. I must say comes in handy for taking a register mentally just from looking at faces in my class or lecture of 100...

My anatomist mind thought it was loops of small intestine at first glance.... 🙈

Brill day yesterday at @cendeathsociety.bsky.social I was made to feel so welcome & had great conversations with so many death scholars, each bringing such different perspectives. The “Death during conflict” talks to end the day were a real highlight: powerful, insightful, and incredibly moving.

I miss living in the NE of Scotland, and Scotland in general, for all this wonderful anatomical history to almost trip over!

Just like my double lecture on the visceral systems last week 😂

Lucy Hyde @lucyformaldehyde.bsky.social · 08/11/2025

In 2025 I find that awful. If you don't have the tech or capabilities to offer hybrid online, the answers simple - just don't! I really hope the price was SIGNIFICANTLY less than in person.

Lucy Hyde @lucyformaldehyde.bsky.social · 03/11/2025

Stunning historical anatomical illustrations, I love the overlap with the visuals of plants and phytology, how botanical these are - the kidney like a seed pod, and the bronchial tree like some sort of ivy or bramble 😍

43% of these women are separated from their partner at the time.... and 3 women a WEEK take their own lives due to DV, that's 1 in 8 of all female deaths.... Come on Reform, nothing to say? Probably because 67% of those at anti immigration marches already have a criminal record for domestic DV...

Beautiful illustrations. Interested to know if any of Bell's work and illustrations can be linked back to any specific donor / subject that can be noted?
