Lockdown Anatomy with Prof Alice Roberts #1: Upper limb bones

[@mustafabozoglan]

I saw Alice Roberts about six years ago in the documentary "BBC - The Incredible Human Journey". In this documentary, she did wonders by evaluating the information very well. It also fascinated me. So I started following her. I am a 34-year Environmental Engineer. I learned a lot of information from Alice Roberts. It helped me find answers to some of my questions that I couldn't find the answer to. Professor Dr. Alice Roberts is a person who tries to be beneficial not only to the people of her own country but to all humanity. Thanks Prof. Dr. Alice Roberts.

Thank you Dr. Roberts! You have always been one of my idols! I have a medical degree and now doing my PhD in USA. We need more medical scientists like you. Please continue with this great initiative.

[@dranatomy786]

Good luck 😃

[@Jrh993]

Brilliant. Thank you Professor Alice you are an inspiration to so many who watch your wonderful knowledge. Xxx

[@dranatomy786]

Great work

[@macg33zr]

Loved this! I had shoulder replacement surgery and it is good to understand more what is going on in there with the shoulder joint. I never realised how much was going on with my shoulders and what an amazing joint it is until I smashed my humeral head and needed surgery on it. Thankful for shoulder surgeons and people like you who teach anatomy!

[@keithdavies3870]

Helping me understand my past broken bones and new pains in my wrist joints thanks your bones remind you every day of how we got to the shape we are in.

[@pinkmarigolds]

as someone who has never really studied anatomy this video has got me hooked. Very clever and very interesting, Thanks

[@mcc.o.4835]

I absolutely love these videos. Sending you well wishes from Minnesota in the United States.

[@ashleygeddes301]

Excellent video! Looking forward to seeing more. Thanks Alice.

[@Louise-qk2po]

Thank you Professor Roberts, excellent video, very well explained.

[@asgio27]

Continuously amazing, well done, and captivating!

[@colsylvester639]

Great review of anatomy of the upper limb. I might already know it (not used that knowledge in much detail for about 14 years) , but it was delivered in such away that it really felt like a solid reminder. Thanks!

[@silverchain6182]

Hello Dr Alice Im here after watching your tv series called 'ORIGINS OF US'. I was so astonished after that and i love your all the shows. I encourage you to put more videos on channel. I don't know about other people but I'll surely watch them everyday. God bless ya 😄

[@ebrark.5555]

Thank you so much. 💐 I took screenshot all the scenes. I will print them. Really nice to see your videos. You are amazing. 👏🌸

[@michaelfrankling]

Brilliant, looking forward to the next one.

[@dranatomy786]

Good luck 😁

[@andrewdowniephd]

Thanks Alice. I will be showing this to my 12 and 13 yo daughters. They are curious but with both parents being former research scientists we do try to avoid encouraging a future in that realm, lol. Really interesting and perfectly sized nuggets of knowledge, many thanks. Stay Safe.

[@alshstar2110]

Thank you- I very much enjoyed your video. Could you consider doing an episode or two about the bone healing process after breaks?

[@JibletParade]

Thank you Professor. It's very interesting to relate this to the martial art I practice. I find myself wondering how things shift around during movements such as, say, the shoulders being shrugged, or wrist rotation. I'm looking forward to the muscles/tendons video to see how the yin and yang pathways we talk about relate to the Anatomical perspective.

[@dmsreg]

That was really interesting, thank you! It was particularly helpful where you included a quick translation from anatomical language into a "that means the part jutting out at the end furthest away" description. Could you perhaps do a video where you run through of the more common anatomical terms like an illustrated glossary for us non specialists? Having a good grasp of your tuberosities, posteriors and distals seems to be fundamental to getting the most out of these sorts of videos!

[@carrieoff]

Thanks Alice, am starting my Occupational therapy training in feb and as an older student (am your age) had a suspicion that the youngsters will leave me behind on this subject. Am very happy to have stumbled upon your videos.

[@dranatomy786]

Great work 👍

[@bikebore73]

Great video. Thank you. I would like to see more about the ankle area, having broken my tib and fib recently some further insight into how the bone and muscle structure interacts would be really interesting.

[@NeilGrevitt]

I have no medical training, but I have an interest in evolution and how things work. This was a fascinating video and easy to understand. I'd love to understand more about how the muscles and tendons attach. I never knew the bones had little pockets and channels for them. I love that Stephen Jay Gould book 😁

[@aliceroberts4107]

Thank you for your kind comments! The muscles and tendons will be the next video.

[@RobManser77]

Great video. Thank you. 👍🏻 I look forward to the next one. 😊

[@ibrahimhayatu5674]

Thank you so much Prof. This was really helpful.

[@mohamedalwerfalli9459]

Good work !!

[@kwdroneflights2374]

Thanks Alice, that was fascinating. Looking forward to the next video :)

[@paulrea2718]

Thanks for taking the time to do this. I found it very interesting

[@ZOGGYDOGGY]

You might want to turn your sound up at the beginning. Once you get to the bone pix, the sound goes up, which is better for these 75 year old ears. Thanks for the arm tour. I've read your, The Incredible Unlikeliness of Being. Learned a lot about the evolution our anatomy from it.

[@aliceroberts4107]

Thanks for the tip!

[@ZOGGYDOGGY]

@@aliceroberts4107 You're most welcome.

[@swiftjonas3712]

These videos are super helpful and really interesting! I can’t wait to see more

[@geospectrum]

Very handy, I have arthritis in my DIP and my wife has a broken radial head. Who knew, I do now, thanks Alice!

[@MarieBrownTeacher]

Thanks Alice, will definitely be watching this series of videos and will send the link to my A level Biology students.

[@rjkellie]

Thanks Prof! This is quite interesting and, as an artist is quite helpful. I like to poke at myself to see if I can feel the parts you are displaying.

[@JustinMcNeil]

Great video, I'm looking forward to see more 🙂

[@XansiaRB]

Great video Prof Roberts, biology (of any kind) has never been my strength, but this was informative, interesting and I was able to keep up (I know you started easy on us!). I am looking forward to the next instalment. :)

[@yuta2349]

This was very helpful. Thanks a lot !

[@alicemcco6214]

Thank you for this. I am blessed with no medical expertise at all but I do find this fascinating. I adore your Don't Die Young book too. A passing mention of common complaints may be useful to some as you move from body part to body part?

[@sophiestree]

Yes! That would be really good to understand what's going on and why.

[@aliceroberts4107]

I'll start with the basics then build up to incorporating more pathology as we go. We need to get onto soft tissues before the pathology makes sense.

[@thelifeandtimesofjames4273]

Superb! Are we set to build the muscles on at any point? That would be great to learn.

[@daz36uk]

Great video, I will definitely be following these.

[@Michael19841]

Great video! I’ve a frozen left shoulder which isn’t healing. Need to get some physio to try and improve things.

[@michaelkyriacou7026]

Brilliant and as lovely as ever,thanks so much Alice,stay safe!! :)

[@standstill0641]

You did a television series called don't die young . Is this able to be put up on KZbin. It was really good showing different parts or functions of body organs. Would be great if you could upload the 2 series / 16 parts.

[@Twist8428]

Great work. More please

[@NerdWorldHistory]

Always enjoyed her history series, I really like Celts Blood, Iron and sacrifice. I learnt so much :)

[@geocarey]

Great! I have been blessed with tennis elbow and frozen shoulder in both arms, plus various bouts of tendonitis. Hoorah for cortisone! The video show lots of the anatomy involved. What are the two small bumps on the 1st metacarpal?

[@aliceroberts4107]

geocarey I think you’re probably looking at the two tiny sesamoid bones - which are embedded in tendons at the base of the thumb.

[@geocarey]

@@aliceroberts4107 Thanks - these are they. geoastro.co.uk/sesamoid.jpg

[@philaddison2362]

Thank you, this is so interesting.

[@whitewitchpauline]

Relearning at 73👏so interesting thankyou

[@thecatinthehat3931]

This message is for Alice: have just watched your program ' lost tribes of humanity' . there was a professor in a cave in gibraltar showing lines that were scribed into rock by neanderthals. if it was art then it would be on a wall so you could view it but it was on a flat piece of rock and were straight lines that looked mathematical in the shape of a graph. this definitely looked like noughts and crosses that could have been played with different shells or different coloured pebbles. those neanderthals were more intelligent than they get credit for (and had to keep their kids entertained too!)

[@aliceroberts4107]

jill evans Absolutely - and I’ve just had the pleasure of reading an amazing new book about Neanderthals, pre-publication: Kindred by Becky Wragg Sykes - out in August.

[@arthunter92]

How can you not like these videos…

[@santoshchoudante4140]

Thanks Ma'am

[@sajjadkhan9710]

👍👍👍👍 Super.

[@johnbarnes6568]

Of course this video is interesting but Alice is just showing off her book collection, I bet she has more as well. A totally gifted individual that takes you on a journey of learning and discovery.

[@MattMeskill]

Wonderful!

[@sharonwood5560]

Fascinating thank you

[@colinsasso2753]

I'm trying to make my own videos for my students using this app... how are you speeding up your writing within the video?

[@tobiasrankin9606]

Thank you Professor Roberts, is it possible to follow your slides on Complete anatomy so those with subscription can explore these?

[@aliceroberts4107]

Tobias Rankin I haven’t made slides in the app - this is edited down. But you can follow along if you open the ‘left upper limb’ model in the app.

[@tobiasrankin9606]

Alice Roberts Thank you, I am programme leader for the cohort of MSc Surgical Care Practitioners at University of Plymouth. Are you happy for me to share this feed with them? Have you had a chance to use the Anatomage Tables?

[@aliceroberts4107]

Tobias Rankin Please do share the videos! I find Anatomage tables rather clunky - we have them at Brum but I much prefer CA. And real dissection.

[@tobiasrankin9606]

Alice Roberts. Thank you, I look forward to many more of these.

[@taylordick956]

Hi Alice, what software do you use to add the handwritten text labels to your Complete anatomy videos? Do you use your iPad and draw with an Apple Pencil? Is there a feature for screen capture. We have just purchased a subscription and I would love to try and make some videos as well. Thanks!

[@aliceroberts4107]

Taylor Dick I just use the “pen” tool in the app - with an Apple Pencil. You can record in the app or just record on your iPad - though I had specific permission to share videos outside the app.

[@bodystorm]

@@aliceroberts4107 love your videos! So informative and well presented. Are you planning to look at/produce a video on the hip joint? :)

[@nimababaei3753]

🤩🤩🤩

[@BytebroUK]

Loved it . But you need a better microphone - had to turn my volume up to max just to hear you!

[@michaelgage4299]

More please

[@IanCoxdevonseaglass]

More please!

[@domramsey]

I checked my phalanges and they're all present.

[@aliceroberts4107]

Good to hear it!

[@nu.wa.n]

If you are a student, you can email 3D4Medical for an educational discount. it was $22 AUD when I got it at the time. Incredibly good value.

[@scottblackmore7468]

I'm training to become a weightlifting coach and working through Totora's - these should be a wonderful addition to my learning

[@MrJohnAndrewhall]

Evolution, where did it all go wrong?

[@TheRichardgomm]

Isn't it silly, you buy a toaster and your given an instruction, care and maintenance manual, but you don't get one for your body

[@KnightofZyryab]

This sounds familiar ... I broke my wrist the doctors said in 8 places, I'm guessing I broke all of the wrist bones then!

[@exegesis67]

Brilliant. I have a shoulder problem and bought the classic Atlas of Human Anatomy by Frank H Netter. It's been great to help me visualise what's going on in my shoulder but this was amazing. Looking forward to the next instalment.

[@aliceroberts4107]

exegesis67 Netter’s illustrations are stunning!
