Academics

The Clinical Anatomy Summer Program (CASP) at Stanford University is for high school students considering careers in medical and health-related fields, such as medicine, surgery, dentistry, EMT/paramedics, nursing, biomedical engineering, occupational therapy, physical therapy, sports medicine, and medical education.

This in-person, week-long course will introduce students to the anatomy of the human body. Students will attend lectures given by Stanford Medicine faculty, engage in hands-on anatomy lab activities, observe surgical demonstrations, and attend workshops with Stanford physicians.


In CASP, students will...

  • Learn anatomy from Stanford Medicine faculty
  • Be introduced to virtual anatomy tools
  • Learn the fundamentals of suturing, instrument handling and foundational medical skills
  • Learn about careers in medicine
  • Attend guest speaker lectures with Stanford physicians and faculty
  • Take part in hands-on anatomy lab activities
Format

This is a NON-residential program. Students are responsible for daily transportation. CASP is a full-day program starting at 9 AM and ending at about 4 PM each day. A final schedule will be released to accepted students, and start and end times may be variable. All CASP students must be vaccinated against COVID-19 and will be required to show proof on the first day of the program.

Program Details

Anatomy Lab Facilities
The Division of Clinical Anatomy maintains lab and learning resource facilities configured to support the instruction of human anatomy at all levels. These modern, fully-equipped facilities are also appropriate for numerous other activities, including surgical skills training, research and development, and lab skills practice. Consistent with the approach that cadaveric specimens together with medical visualization technologies provide the ideal environment for anatomy study, we make our technology-rich dissection lab, Bio Skills lab, anatomy library, and other facilities available for group reservation and provide staff support when needed.
