Next Generation Embryology

We introduce the Next Generation Embryology project: Next Generation in two ways. First, because its aim is to revolutionise the way the next generation of developmental biologists are educated. Where instead of relying on plastic models and diagrams in books, the idea is to use a digital library that is indexed using virtual 3D models of mouse and human embryos. Second, in terms of next generation technology: this digital library will be navigated and used in the same way as people annotate and learn about the surface of the earth: by using their web browser and a Google Maps type interface.
