Emily Evans, BSc Anatomy & Cell Biology PGCE MMAA RMIP; Morbid Anatomy Artist in Residence, July, 2014
Following her degree in Anatomy and Cell Biology, Emily trained and worked as a school teacher of science and biology in London. Taking a break from full time teaching, Emily retrained as a medical illustrator with the Medical Artists’ Association of Great Britain. Since qualifying, she has been a freelance Medical Illustrator for the last 11 years and works from her studio in London, UK. Throughout her career, she has continued to teach part time, both running a Saturday school in east London, whilst also teaching anatomy at universities in both London and Cambridge. Emily has been a Senior Demonstrator of Anatomy at Cambridge University for 9 years, teaching the medical students dissection and anatomy. Alongside her commissioned artworks, Emily has her own projects and exhibitions reflecting anatomy through contemporary art. She is passionate about the promotion and education of anatomy and art and regularly runs workshops and is involved in anatomical art exhibitions in the UK and USA. In a natural evolution of working on more collaborative anatomy and art projects, Emily launched her store ‘Anatomy Boutique’ in 2013 selling her own uniquely designed products inspired by anatomy.
