Executive Summary: Project VÄS
Vivisection Alternative Solutions
Principal & Founder: Christine McCollom-van Bentem
Focus: Modular Anatomical Systems & Instructional Architecture
Status: Proprietary Development (Stealth Mode)
The Vision:
Project VÄS is a pioneering initiative to modernize anatomical education through the development of Modular, Reversible Dissection Systems. By merging the high-fidelity science of Plastination with advanced Instructional Design, VÄS provides a sustainable, bio-ethical alternative to traditional, "one-use" animal specimens.
The Problems:
Current anatomical training often relies on "disposable" biology, leading to:
Ethical Friction: Significant loss of life with no secondary utility.
Instructional Limits: Traditional specimens are monolithic and destructive; once a cut is made, the process cannot be reversed or practiced.
Environmental Impact: Ongoing reliance on toxic preservatives and biohazardous waste.
The Solution: Modular Architecture
VÄS introduces a Reversible Dissection Logic. Utilizing proprietary Anatomical Key-Way Indexing, VÄS models allow students to:
Deconstruct complex biological systems into individual, high-fidelity modules.
Examine the "Vascular Tree" as a standalone structural entity.
Reassemble the specimen to verify anatomical accuracy through tactile feedback.
The Empathy Protocol:
At the heart of VÄS is the Empathy Protocol—a shift in scientific documentation that treats the specimen as a "Masterpiece of Life" rather than a tool of utility. This framework increases student engagement, retention, and moral stewardship, fostering a generation of veterinary and medical professionals who prioritize precision and respect.
Request for Partnership:
Full Technical Specifications, Mechanical Interface Blueprints, and Instructional Design Dossiers are available to qualified institutional partners.
Access to the "VÄS Master Prospectus" requires a signed Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA).
