Medical Advisory Board

During the design phase and the development phase of CORPUS, we received extensive support from a Medical Advisory Board and an Advisory Board. This team consisting of, among other people, medical specialists, has ensured that all the information provided at CORPUS is based on correct medical facts and that CORPUS has been built as an exact replica of the human body. We are particularly grateful to the team for the help they offered us at the start and still offer to this very day.
