ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY
Free Anatomy & Physiology Learning
Decolonizing health means decentralizing knowledge.
You don’t need permission to learn how your body works. These open-access resources exist outside institutional gatekeeping — clear, thorough, and made to be shared. Whether you're reclaiming your own health literacy or supporting others, this is where practical, biological knowledge becomes public domain.
🧠 MIT OpenCourseWare – Human Anatomy & Physiology
This is world-class education made public. MIT’s free course materials cover the structure and function of all major systems — with real lecture videos, study guides, and lab assignments. It’s the kind of access most people are priced out of — now once again, finally open to anyone.
📘 OpenStax Anatomy & Physiology – Free College Textbook
Not everyone needs to know everything. But if bodies is your thing. This textbook is used in universities across the U.S., but it’s free online through OpenStax. It breaks down every major system of the human body, from cellular mechanics to integrated organ function — with diagrams, glossary terms, and review tools. No paywalls, no catch.
🎓 Khan Academy – Human Anatomy & Physiology
Simple, visual, and easy to digest. Khan Academy is one of the most accessible places to build your foundation in anatomy and physiology — from skeletal structure to hormonal regulation — without needing any background or credentials.
🧬 Coursera – University-Level A&P (Free to Audit)
Top-tier universities like Duke and Michigan offer their A&P courses to the public through Coursera. When you audit the course, it’s completely free — including video lectures, interactive modules, and self-paced learning. Learn what med students learn, on your terms.
🖼️ Visible Body – 3D Anatomy Models (Free Demo Access)
While the full toolkit is paid, Visible Body offers free web-based 3D models you can explore without an account. Rotate muscles, organs, and bones in real time. It’s a powerful tool for visual learning and body literacy.
If your interested in learning passively while you chill or speed clean this video series on YouTube is my personal favorite. So it gets a special button.
