Courses
Anatomy & Physiology I & II (CC BY-NC-SA) by Open Learning Initiative at Carnegie Mellon University

This course focuses on a few themes that, when taken together, provide a full view of what the human body is capable of and of the exciting processes going on inside of it. The themes are:

 	
Structure and function of the body, and the connection between the two.
 	
Homeostasis, the body’s natural tendency to maintain a stable internal environment.
 	
Levels of Organization, the major levels of organization in the human organism from the chemical and cellular levels to the tissues, organs and organ systems.
 	
Integration of Systems, concerning which systems are subsets of larger systems, and how they function together in harmony and conflict.

Atlas of Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy (Lumen/SUNY) by various.

The majority of entries in this atlas were produced by students including dissection, photography, and identification. It is a work in progress, but we hope that students of anatomy find this a useful tool for studying anatomy outside of the lab.

Anatomy Illustrations (CC BY) by Alice Roberts

A collection of almost 300 anatomy illustrations by an instructor with over twenty years experience teaching anatomy.

Biology 351 - Anatomical Illustrations (CC-BY-NC-SA) by AuthorsL Most, Corrina; Tran, Katherine; Seweryn, Olivia; and Hagan, Graham

These anatomical illustrations were created by Biological and Pre-Medical Illustration (BPMI) students from Iowa State University. The students worked closely with the lab instructor to develop detailed anatomical illustrations of the specimens studied in the lab.

The Visible Human Project (Public domain) by National Library of Medicine

The NLM Visible Human Project® has created publicly-available, complete, anatomically detailed, three-dimensional representations of a human male body and a human female body. Specifically, the VHP provides a public-domain library of cross-sectional cryosection, CT, and MRI images obtained from one male cadaver and one female cadaver.
Labs
Comparative Vertebrate Physiology Lab Manual (CC BY-NC-SA) by Dr. Curt Walker

This is a collection of 11 vertebrate physiology labs for upper-division biology laboratory courses. The manual is highly adaptable, suitable for nearly any comparative vertebrate physiology lab course, using any textbook or no textbook at all. The experiments can be adapted to suit nearly any environment in which the course is taught. The materials and equipment needed are inexpensive for the most part, and commonly available in university departments of biology.

Human Anatomy Lab Manual (CC BY) by Malgosia Wilk-Blaszczak

This is a lab manual for a college-level human anatomy course. The activities in this manual encourage students to engage with new vocabulary in many ways, including grouping key terms, matching terms to structures, recalling definitions, and written exercises. Most of the activities in this manual utilize anatomical models, and several dissections of animal tissues and histological examinations are also included. Each unit includes both pre- and post-lab questions and six lab exercises designed for a classroom where students move from station to station. The vocabulary terms used in each unit are listed at the end of the manual and serve as a checklist for practicals.

A series of carefully selected questions addressing core learning in clinically relevant anatomy. It provides the opportunity for both pre-med and medical students to improve their knowledge of anatomy, as well as their performance in tests and examinations.

Atlas of Comparative Anatomy (CC BY) by Roosa, Kristen et al

This atlas began as a class project at SUNY Oneonta in 2017 because of the lack of a comprehensive freely-accessible photographic atlas. The majority of entries in this atlas were produced by students including dissection, photography, and identification. It is a work in progress. The online version is available through Lumen Learning.

Introduction to the Brain (CC BY)  by Lorna Camus and Agniete Pocyte, adapted by Kay Douglas and Andrew Ferguson.

This resource includes an introductory information pack for high school students and an activity with printable materials. It addresses the following learning outcomes: Name and locate the different lobes of the brain, understand the functions of each brain, and their real-life applications, actively work in a team with a common goal, and understand the implications of brain damage, such as the case of Phineas Gage.

Functional MRI: Basic principles by caolman (CC-BY)
The overall course is broken into 3 sections:

 	
basic physics of magnetic resonance imaging: excitation, relaxation, gradients, and contrast
 	
some applied details to think of when scanning people: safety, distortion, parallel imaging for speed
 	
finally, specific fMRI details: neurohemodynamic coupling, different kinds of contrast, signal-to-noise vs. contrast-to-noise ratio, and experiment design.
