In 1985, Saint Louis University’s Practical Anatomy and Surgical Education (PASE) program, spearheaded by Paul H. Young, M.D. (SOM '75), hosted the first 3-D medical video workshop in St. Louis. For the past 40 years, PASE has provided health care professionals from all over the globe with hands-on cadaver workshops to enhance their surgical techniques and knowledge.
When Young started PASE, the building he purchased was nearly 60 years old. Now approximately a century old, PASE’s facility – featuring one of the nation’s original 3-D bio-skills labs – requires significant upgrades and repairs, including:
- Audio-visual equipment upgrades in the Auditorium, Zeiss Learning Center, and Laboratory B
- Upgrade of the elevator to ensure compliance with safety codes and ADA requirements
