With his landmark 1543 publication De humani corporis fabrica, Andreas Vesalius (1514–1564) laid the foundation of modern anatomy. He died on the Greek island of Zakynthos, where he was buried, but the exact location of his grave has remained unknown—until now. Tracing and studying it is one of the main objectives of the international interdisciplinary platform Vesalius Continuum: a new interdisciplinary effort that brings together art, science, and technology. 🧠 🫀 🫁
