Anatomy of the Male Pelvis
Led by our expert faculty of anatomists, this half-day review of the Anatomy of the Male Pelvis is aimed at professionals with a scope of practice relevant to the region, such as practitioners addressing issues related to urogenital dysfunction, prostate cancer survivorship and MSK conditions affecting the lumbar spine and pelvis, and anterior abdominal wall and groin.
The course will be taught by our expert faculty of Anatomists in purpose designed facilities using an extensive catalogue of pre-dissected human donor material.
Using expertly dissected human donor material, participants will be guided to:
- Identify structures of the pelvis & perineum, including ligaments, myofasciae, organs & neurovasculature
- Appreciate anatomical relationships & continuities in 3D
- Relate your learning experience to individual scope of practice
Please note that this course is aimed at medical professionals, allied health practitioners & researchers with a related scope of practice, e.g. urogenital health, who are keen to refresh & extend their anatomical knowledge via guided examination of authentic human tissue.
Details from a professional body are required as a part of the registration process (e.g. GMC, NMC, HCPC). Please get in touch with us at Vesalius-courses@bristol.ac.uk if you would like more information or if your professional body is not listed.
Cost: £140
Location: School of Anatomy, University of Bristol, 32 Southwell Street, BS2 8EJ

Dr Suzanne Scott
Suzanne is an anatomist, sports physiologist and movement coach. In her role at the University of Bristol she has developed original, dynamic anatomy courses, at both undergraduate and postgraduate/professional level, which aim to contextualise anatomy in the actions and movements of everyday living and sports performance. Suzanne has a parallel career working within performance medicine teams and has coached movement and supported rehabilitation from an anatomy-informed perspective for over two decades, and brings her knowledge and experience to her anatomy teaching delivery.
Russell Peters
Russell Peters is a Senior Lecturer in Human Anatomy at the University of Bristol, specialising in the structural and functional basis of musculoskeletal performance and injury. His background is in Sport and Exercise Biomechanics, with expertise in 3D motion capture, electromyography, and movement-based assessment.
Russell began his academic career at the University of Chichester, later leading the discipline of Sport & Exercise Biomechanics at both Kingston University and Birmingham Newman University. He has designed and directed multiple degree programmes and has extensive experience teaching anatomy and biomechanics at undergraduate, postgraduate and MRes level.
His research and consultancy portfolio spans professional and elite sport, working with athletes such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Olympic squads, and alongside companies including Hi-Tec, Adidas and the UK Ministry of Defence. Russell’s work focuses on translating biomechanical insights into practical MSK applications, from understanding mechanism of injury, to the development of field-based assessment tools and performance-related strategies.
