Nature Video was invited to Windsor Castle to see some of Leonardo da Vinci's anatomical drawings. The drawings show that Leonardo did more than dabble in the sciences; he carried out experiments and made staggering medical discoveries which could have transformed the study of anatomy in Europe -- had they not languished unpublished for centuries. In this video, Senior Curator Martin Clayton shows us three of Leonardo's most intriguing anatomical studies.

The drawings in this video will be part of an exhibition at The Queen's Gallery in Buckingham Palace from 4 May to 7 October 2012 http://www.royalcollection.org.uk/exhibitions/leonardo-da-vinci-anatomist

Martin has also written a commentary for Nature's Books & Arts section: Leonardo's anatomy years http://www.nature.com/uidfinder/10.1038/484314a
