Today it houses such "anatifacts" as President Garfield's vertebrae (complete with his assassin's bullet), the evolution of the microscope, and early medical instruments. Features ongoing and past online exhibits as well as a browsable guide to the museum's historical, anatomical, and neuroanatomical collections. Searchable.
