As well as some impressive sights in the exhibit, such as a plastinated per- son riding a large plastinated horse, there were also embryos at different stages of development which was a fascinating sight; Cadets were able to see fingers on these tiny embryos at as early as 10 weeks old. Cadets were able to observe reconstructed joints and bones, locations of major blood vessels as well as the genetic basis of happiness, amongst much more.
This was an informative trip enjoyed by all; the themes on display are relevant to everyone in the group; those both well-established and new to the Platoon were able to learn about the systems within their own body and marvel at the sight of such artistic science. As OCdts in Lucknow, we are lucky to be able to have opportunities such as this to broaden our experiences outside of our daily programme, as well as organise excur- sions, a skill which will be of great use to us in our future careers.
