Art in Science: An Introduction to the Field of Medical Illustration

This lecture, presented by Anthony Baker, CMI, FAMI, will introduce attendees to the field of medical illustration. We will begin with an overview of the history of medical illustration in the United States, focusing on the establishment of Johns Hopkins’ Art as Applied to Medicine department, founded by Max Brödel. Then we will trace medical illustration connections between the Johns Hopkins department and The Ohio State University, with a specific highlight of Robert M. Zollinger’s Atlas of Surgical Operations.
