The SecondLook™ Neuroanatomy Series
Description:
The Neuroanatomy SecondLookTM application is a study aid that provides a series of neuroanatomical images for users to self-test their level of knowledge and ability to recognize structures within the human central nervous system. The images in the Neuroanatomy SecondLookTM application were captured using the University of Michigan anatomy and histology collections. This application was developed with the learner in mind, especially medical, dental, nursing, and other health sciences students, and lab professionals. The SecondLookTM Lite Neuroanatomy sample application is free to download and contains a representative slide from each of the available twelve sets. The complete slide sets, covering Gross Neuroanatomy, Spinal Cord, Ascending and Descending Pathways, Cranial Nerves, Diencephalon, Forebrain, Brain Stem, Limbic System, Auditory/Vestibular System, Visual System, and Neurohistology, may be purchased as a complete mobile application. By taking a "Second Look" at these images, users are able to quickly self-evaluate and test their knowledge of the human central nervous system in order to identify gaps and to be better prepared for tests. This mobile application will also serve as an excellent review tool to prepare for licensing examinations. Both versions of this application are available for iPhones and iPads from the iTunes Store and for Android devices from the Google Play Store.

Testimonials:
Here's what what iTunes and Google Play Store customers say about the SecondLookTM Neuroanatomy apps:
"Loved second look neuroanatomy. Great, efficient yet comprehensive review of the material. Best quality images of any resource I have used."
"Technology engaging science! Great"
"I’ve used the full neuroanatomy and it offers very helpful practice memorizing the brain’s structures and exchange of fluids. I use the app when working through particular pathways by which behaviors arise. One of my neuropsychology professors now uses the app after I recommended it to her for class!"
"This app presents unique value to a medical student. This app not only provides clear histological/anatomical images, but then provides real time feedback of substructures and relevant clinical tie ins that help make this vast material make some sort of sense. Also helps remarkably with retention for exams too! E.g. I’ve never had someone clearly delineate the borders of the hypothalamus and dorsal thalamus before as this app did."
"I found this app really helpful for studying basic neuroanatomy. It uses real human specimens to point out key structures and landmarks in the brain. It’s also interactive and allows you to quiz yourself, which I found to be much more effective than just passively reading or studying a textbook. The full version is worth the price, I recommend it!"
"Wish this had been available when I was teaching neuroanatomy"
