A serious museum for pathology, anatomy, and medical students and researchers. Not for gore seekers and other weirdos looking for a cheap creep thrill or way to entertain children.

I'm sure laypeople can be very interested in some of it, but probably won't have the patience to fully engage with the pathology level to the degree possible, especially. It is a whole floor of body parts in jars, with a few skeletons sprinkled in for variety.

I've been to many museums of this kind, and studied human biology, and this is the most bland museum I have been to that is branded as an experience for the general public. Sure, you can learn a little bit, and most people will probably do the majority of their learning on the history floor and the robotics interactive floor. It gets very, very redundant for people who aren't deeply into pathology and human specimens. Even as someone who is, many of the specimens seemed somewhat redundant unless you have medical expertise with precisely what you're looking at. Almost as if they included so many just to fill the shelves.

A major issue I had with the ability to fully engage with the pathology exhibit was the lack of photography as they have very interesting kiosks where you can look up the case studies (each specimen is labelled) but without being able to take photos of the specimens, it makes it incredibly difficult to cross-reference. You'd have to run back and forth from the kiosks to the specimen. I don't know how any student would actually use this for study purposes. Cumbersome and illogical. What are they supposed to do, draw the specimens?

There is very little air flow. A woman passed out while I was there due to it being so hot and stuffy.

I think the museum needs to decide whether it's a museum for the general public or for medical researchers/historians. It doesn't work as both. The main history section is the most like a regular history museum for anybody. But the future of surgery/robotics section is weirdly juvenile in contrast to the pathology floor. The interactive exhibits seem oversimplified and already outdated... if they even work. Half were out of service.

The price is too high for what you get. The Scottish National Museum is free and is 100x the size and complexity with much more engaging exhibits and placards. For a dedicated pathology student, sure, it's probably awesome. For anybody else, I'm not sure but maybe you'll be lucky.
