Anatomical Examination, Education, Training and Research

History of MSSSC

The Manchester Surgical Skills and Simulation Centre (MSSSC) is a state of the art training facility in the centre of Manchester and one of only a few training centres in the country to offer cadaveric dissection using fresh frozen tissue. It has been a cornerstone of multi-professional learning, facilitating regional, national and international courses since 2012.

The MSSSC facilitates high fidelity simulation for healthcare professionals across a multitude of specialties and professions, giving them the opportunity to improve their skills in a realistic simulated environment. It is also the ideal environment for the assessment of procedural skills by examining or regulatory bodies. There are excellent links with the Anatomy Department of the University of Manchester giving the option of extended academic learning.
