Backyard Brain Kits
Tools that enable students to observe and understand neural activity, making the study of the nervous system interactive and engaging.
Applied Learning in Anatomy
Investigate the interdependent workings of the human body in UW-Stout's Cadaver Lab—one of only two facilities in west-central Wisconsin. Our lab offers Stout students the opportunity to engage directly in practical anatomical studies using male and female cadavers as an integral part of their anatomy, physiology, and pathology coursework. The Cadaver Lab serves as a foundational space for those pursuing pre-health pathways, including exercise physiology, pharmacology, neuroscience, kinesiology, and biomechanics. Whether you're aspiring to a career in healthcare or examining the complexities of human biology, our Cadaver Lab offers a rare opportunity to prepare for advanced academic and professional success.
UW-Stout's Cadaver Lab offers a unique environment to study anatomy beyond traditional textbooks. The lab is furnished with advanced tools and a variety of anatomical models and histology samples. Students can examine diverse specimens, such as sheep, for comparative anatomical studies and use diagnostic tools like EKG machines and Backyard Brain kits that allow them to observe live neural signals and apply modern medical techniques.
