ResumoEmbryology is critical for understanding many developmental diseases and their processes, and provides a solid foundation for comprehending adult anatomical structure and its abnormalities. Despite our technological advancements, there is still a lack of adequate visual representation of the dynamic, three dimensional (3D) events that occur during development. In an effort to close this critical learning gap a claymation video of an embryological event (heart septation) was created. Heart septation is an extremely important event to conceptualize in the medical field as it lays the groundwork for many adult abnormalities. It has also proven to be one of the most difficult topics for students to comprehend. Therefore, a video was generated to provide students with a readily accessible and effective learning platform to better represent embryological events not easily depicted through flat, two dimensional (2D) images. Using stop‐motion animations of clay models and drawings to represent the different aspects of heart septation, a video was developed and voiced over to provide context. Data on its efficacy will be collected within the next few months through the distribution of post‐viewing surveys. It is hypothesized that this video and its future counterparts will dramatically increase the level of embryologic comprehension and thus improve upon the student's education. This video will be the beginning of a series of videos both representing normal and abnormal developmental events. The end goal being the creation of a visual library to aid in student understanding of embryology and its clinical applications. This abstract is from the Experimental Biology 2018 Meeting.
