UCL Pathology Museum

Based at the Royal Free Hospital, UCL’s Pathology Museum contains 8,000 human pathology specimens used for teaching, research and public engagement in human health and disease.

Sensitive images

Please note that these pages contain images of human remains. The preparations of human tissue in UCL Pathology Museum were gathered before modern standards of consent were established. We recognise the debt owed to those unnamed people who have helped to advance medical knowledge.
