Heart by Aleksandr Kuskov.
The heart is special. In a lifetime, our hearts will beat over 2 billion times. It is a pump, a hard working machine, that drives us through the day and night, through the good and bad. It is the first organ to fully function when we are conceived; it is one of the last organs to fail.
And of course, it is the only organ that falls in love.
Standard Operating Procedure design for Threadless by Ian Burns.
This is exactly what happens in the operating room every time. You need steady hands so always make sure you lay off the coffee before scrubbing in. A fun and neat design that tickles the surgical side of me.
Blood of Grapes, Wine Bottles Shaped Like the Human Heart by Constantin Bolimond.
Now that is very clever. I could see this being a nice thank you gift for a cardiologist or a hematologist. I love the fluid shape and the high contrast used in the design. It really makes for an eye-catching shape that just immediately grabs you and will not let go.
A Helping Hand
Many of you may remember Steve McGaughey from the Gastric Subway. A medical student in Iowa with a passion for design, he has been steadily busy with some projects on the side. One of the exciting projects he is working on is with medical boards review book series to oversee a revamping of their medical illustrations.
At the present time, he is looking for individuals who are interested in medicine and illustration to contribute to this project. Preferably, he is looking for medical students with an eye for design, or medical illustrator students with a strong science background.
If you are interested in this project and would like to contribute or know someone else who might, he can be contacted at steven.mcgaughey@gmail.com.
Corezone by Dorota Skalska and Adnieszka Mazur.
Some things are best left unsaid; others needed to be lifted off our chest. Here, the Corezone allows one to deposit their thoughts and feelings into the bank of its porcelain walls. For those heavy moments that are too much of a burden to constantly wear around our necks.
Organ-Shaped Concrete Necklaces by IVANKA.
There is a very Art Deco vibe about these necklaces that I find very striking. Perhaps its the chiseled look or the simplicity of these distilled shapes but I find them very lovely.
Why Not Zoidberg? by Chris Carlson.
The good doctor hailing from Decapod 10 gets a moment in the limelight in this amazing anamorphic chalk art. While his lack of understanding of human anatomy has made his Terran patients uneasy since working as the staff doctor at the Planet Express, his confidence in his own abilities is at least…admirable. Stay awesome, Dr. Zoidberg.

Medical Collages by Casey Cripe.
Perpetually in progress. Living. Growing. Evolving. These anatomical collages are absolutely amazing. Be sure to check out the rest of Casey Cripe’s collages on his Flickr stream.
Magic Arms.
Two-year-old Emma wanted to play with blocks, but a condition called arthrogryposis meant she couldn’t move her arms. So researchers at a Delaware hospital 3D printed a durable custom exoskeleton with the tiny, lightweight parts she needed.
This is a heart-warming video that showcases the power of technology to facilitate - in medicine and beyond - the latest discoveries and advances of our time, our world, and our human nature. It is that relationship that powers the frontiers to a better tomorrow.
