About Us

BlueLink is a multimedia-based education resource developed by Dr. B. Kathleen Alsup and Dr. Glenn M. Fox of the Division of Anatomical Sciences at the University of Michigan Medical School. BlueLink includes cadaveric photographs, comprehensive lab manuals, and interactive files with click-to-reveal testing capabilities.  Future expansion goals include demonstrative videos, computer-generated conceptual images, educational screencasts, and interactive online modules.  

BlueLink is a portable and scalable approach to engaging students within a digital ecosystem.  BlueLink materials are free for educational purposes, and are designed for global access and helping to promote education equity.  For more information about this project, please explore the BlueLink site.  

"BlueLink images were the single most effective way to study for anatomy."

"BlueLink images have been wonderful in preparing for exams."

"LabLink did a good job presenting both procedural information and lecture information in an understandable way."  

"The BlueLink resource is incredible-- don't know where I'd be in anatomy without it."
