Once upon a time, working as a medical illustrator might have seemed like a quirky niche. This year, however, that's all changed. Here are 16 medical illustrators doing groundbreaking work https://bit.ly/2Q96LA3

One of the best parts of medical art is when the overlap between art and medicine stimulates creativity through knowledge. Dr Pankaj Goyal, an ENT surgeon at Seth GS medical college and KEM hospital Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, recently contacted the MAA regarding his own artwork which we love and are delighted to share with you here.
He describes it as follows: "My thought for this painting - Cochlea ...the inner ear. It looks like shell of snail so I created it by my imagination. Microscopically all 2.75 turns are around modiolus and further it has been divided into 3 parts. So from education and surgical purpose it is very helpful not only for residents, medical students (microscopic anatomy) but patients also where cochlear implant is required. As our ENT department is doing cochlear implant surgery for patients who had profound sensorineural hearing loss and before surgery to give education regarding implant, I thought this painting will give a better understanding."

Our thanks to Dr Goyal and please, feel free to share your own medical artwork with us!

We’re very excited to see that October is nearly here and with that comes the second #sciartink drawing challenge! A drawing a day for the month of October. ⁠

So many amazing and talented medical and scientific illustrators participated last year and we can't wait to see the amazing work that will be produced next month. This year we’re going with a “Powers of Ten” edition where we can stretch our creative selves by thinking of different organ magnifications. ⁠

From our archives: the works of one of the MAA’s

From our archives: the works of one of the MAA’s founding members Audrey Arnott (1901-1974). Audrey was the only British medical artist to study with the renowned medical artist Max Brödel in the USA. She might well have made a career in portrait painting, but was persuaded to devote her working life to medical art and mainly to producing neurosurgical drawings for Professor Hugh Cairns (1896-1952), who did not consider an artist as a luxury but as an essential member of any medical team. She studied at the Brödel School (Rochester) and brought back to Britain the Ross-board, carbon-dust technique, devised by Brödel.
Audrey will be remembered particularly for her exceptionally fine neurosurgical drawings. They are without doubt, among the most well-drawn and sensitive medical illustrations of the first half of the twentieth century. #maaofgb #medicalart #medicalillustration #carbondust

Congratulations to our member @eleanorcrooksculptu

Congratulations to our member @eleanorcrooksculpture for the unveiling of her new breathtaking sculpture 'Santa Medicina' at the @sciencemuseum last week. We are looking forward to hearing Eleanor's talk about the process of making this artwork as well as discussing the use of Medical Art as public art at the next MAA conference. In the meantime, here are a few words from the artist on the piece: “I offer Santa Medicina as a patron saint for all who ever placed their hopes in the Science of Medicine: a defender against pain, sickness and mortality who faces down death with kindness and technology. We trust her endless ingenuity to keep our body stitched firmly to our soul, and when the end comes, to share that body with the living by transplantation.” #medicalart #bronzesculpture #medicine #sciencemuseum

We’ve been introducing some of the members who work “behind the scenes” of the MAA but we’re not quite done yet. Ruth Eaves received a Fellowship at this year’s conference in Cambridge for her ongoing and outstanding contribution to our Association. Here are a few lines about her and some examples of her work.................................................. “I graduated from the MAET in 2005 and became a member of the Medical Artists’ Association. I have served on Council and the MAET Education Committee and I’m also the editor of MAA News. I’ve been the medical artist at Bolton Hospitals NHS Trust for the last 25 years and the department manager for the last 15 years. I’m very privileged to work with a great team and I still love it. Working in an NHS environment allows me to work with some really exceptional people and become involved in some great projects. One of which I’ve been working on for the last three years and is to raise awareness of Cauda Equina Syndrome. My CES illustration was awarded the Dr Patricia Archer medal for the best piece of artwork in the professional exhibition at the recent MAA 70th anniversary conference in Cambridge where I also received a Fellowship. I must say that this is the best profession to work in and the MAA has such an array of talented artists pioneering medical art every day.” @rutheaves72 # #medicalart #digitalart #maaofgb #medicalartistsassociation #caudaequina #boltonhospital
