Saint 直播自慰视频 University鈥檚 Adventures in Medicine and Science (AIMS) program teaches distance-learning programs through a high-definition video conferencing system.
About Our Program
AIMS instructor Ray Vollmer has more than 20 years of experience in distance education, and can work with teachers to emphasize specific topics in anatomy or medicine. We can connect with students in the classroom, at home, or in hybrid classes. Through the AIMS video conferencing connection via Zoom; we can connect with students doing e-learning at home as well.
The AIMS Virtual Anatomy Classroom provides hands-on interactive field trips designed to enhance any science curriculum.
These hour-long distance learning programs introduce students to the wonders of the human body in a way that is difficult to duplicate in the classroom. Using a combination of high-definition cameras, human organ specimens and, in select presentations, human cadaver specimens, our presenters lead students through an interactive discussion of human anatomy, pathology and wellness.
All program requests must be made at least four weeks in advance of the date you wish to schedule and must be scheduled based on Central Standard Time (CST).
Available Virtual Field Trips/Distance-Learning Programs
AIMS instructor Ray Vollmer is teaching programs online using video conferencing programs that allow students at home to log in and see human cadavers and specimens using our high-definition camera system. We have video conferencing options available if students are in the classroom or doing e-learning at home. Please see below for a list of topics.

Students participate in an interactive human cadaver demonstration that will outline the most common sports injuries of the shoulder, elbow, knee and ankle. Basic principles of injury management are also discussed.
The musculoskeletal system consists of muscles, bones and connective tissue. During physical activity, these components work in unison to move the body. Injury to the components of this system can often result in a limited range of motion or pain during movement. Muscle strengthening, stretching and proper technique can help to reduce the incidence of sports-related injury.
