VIVIT, the worlds only travelling live post mortem experience, is returning to Bangor this April.

The live human body dissection experience offers front row seats to the hidden world of all things post mortem, where you get to play the pathologist.

This once in a lifetime experience gives you access to nationally acclaimed clinical experts, doctors and PhD researchers at the cutting edge of anatomy and physiology. Live at VIVIT events the skin will be peeled back and using real specimens youll embark on solving the mystery behind the mortality.

VIVITs team of award winning experts undertake hundreds of cadaveric dissections every year and really are international experts in technical dissection showcasing the best of human anatomy and physiology

The VIVIT Experience is a nationally award winning academic experience offering you the chance to participate in a recreated post mortem experience conducted on VIVIT the worlds only semi-synthetic human cadaver.

During this special 5 hour experience you will be taken on a scientifically accurate recreated human body dissection learning in-depth anatomy and physiology relevant to your academic studies.

The course is designed to support students studying in the biosciences, health, sports or associated degree pathways that require an understanding of advanced anatomy and physiology or indeed the associated clinical pathologies.

The procedure will be lead by highly skilled and internationally accliamed human anatomists who will first set out the basics of anatomical dissection before systematically working their way through the anatomical cavities comparing normal specimens with various states of pathology.

You will also be taught a variety of important clinical skills including interpreting X-rays and linking symptoms to clinical diagnosis. There will be the opportunity to ask questions and at the same time handle the anatomical samples and even the chance to undertake some dissection for yourself.

In 2018, VIVIT appeared on Dragons Den and successfully secured investment from Peter Jones and Deborah Meaden after almost three hours of intense negotiation.

CEO, Sam Piri, 31, walked away with the investment and expertise he wanted. Peter and Deborahs team have been working very closely with VIVIT over the last year allowing us to expand the ITAE Group.

VIVIT events are more prominent than ever before whether youre a teenager, undergraduate, healthcare professional or member of the general public you can engage with the experience.
