INNOVATION IN FUNCTIONAL ANATOMY EDUCATION: The Anatomy Lesson of Dr Tulp from the past to the Present
In recent decades, there have been many technological innovations and improvement in the pedagogy of medical education. We have applied some of these developments to one of the most important and most fundamental elements in modern medical education, while combining traditional and innovative approaches. Gross anatomy is a core course for first year medical and some graduate students from the beginnings of time, since Nicholaes Tulp was first depicted by Rembrandt in the now classic painting “The Anatomy Lesson of Dr Tulp”. In the now famous Rembrandt, Dr Tulp is shown dissecting an unembalmed cadaver, while paid onlookers viewed the dissection of the cadaver with great interest. At USAT, the anatomy dissection begins with didactic lectures, much along the traditional lines, but with the exception that the discussion is orientated toward a clinical setting for each phase of the lectures. This is followed by lectures in Organ Systems Pathophysiology, Medical Biophysics, and finally by Introduction to the dissection laboratory. All dissections utilize fresh, unembalmed cadavers, all safety tested for hazards or pre-existing infectious diseases before the start of the dissection, which takes place in a state of the art facility. Prior to the dissection, important sensitivity instruction is given, including acceptable respect, appropriate laboratory and clinical attire [scrubs, surgical gowns, and all needed instruments are provided each student], proper and expected personal demeanor during the dissection. During the dissections, which last for several days on each cadaver, key surgical and medical procedures that are likely to be needed during PGY-I are demonstrated on each cadaver, including insertion of chest tubes, spinal taps, Intubation, topical and cosmetic suturing, endoscopy, 3-D imaging, surgical technique, and others. The culmination of the dissection ends with each student being able to demonstrate the above procedures to standard, and with a complete functional dissection of the cadaver. At the conclusion of the lab body parts are recon our curricukum.nected and prepared for disposal and the ashes returned to the family that donated the cadaver. As an outcome, USAT anatomy lab has become one of the most sought after courses in the first year curriculum, with many student requesting to retake it multiple more times.

Onderzoek vergelijkend vissen mislukt: onderzoeksvakken toch bevist door garnalenkotters (interview met Ingrid Tulp)
Slechts een van de vijftien vakken voor noodzakelijk onderzoek naar effecten van garnalenvisserij op de bodemfauna blijkt volgens plan onbevist te zijn gebleven. In zes vakken is zeker gevist, en in acht vakken vermoedelijk ook. Onderzoekster Ingrid Tulp van IMARES kan maar een conclusie trekken: "De opzet van het onderzoek met vergelijkend vissen is dusdaning verstoord dat het zinloos is de resultaten nu verder te analyseren. Erg vervelend voor alle partijen.
Onderzoek effecten garnalenvisserij in natura 2000 - gebieden van start: medewerking garnalensector onmisbaar
In 2009 hebben vertegenwoordigers van EL&I, de garnalen aanvoersector (Vissersbond en een aantal PO’s), de Waddenvereniging en stichting De Noordzee afspraken gemaakt voor een gezamenlijk traject naar verduurzaming van de garnalenvisserij. Onderdeel daarvan is het uitvoeren van onderzoek dat kan dienen als basis van het vergunningentraject op basis van de Natuurbeschermingswet. Na een lange voorgeschiedenis is het dan nu eindelijk zover. IMARES heeft opdracht gekregen van het ministerie van EL&I en het Productschap Vis (PVis) dit onderzoek vanaf 2012 uit te gaan voeren. Senior-onderzoeker Ingrid Tulp van IMARES geeft uitleg over het onderzoek
Studies on breeding shorebirds at Medusa Bay, Taimyr, in summer 2001
In the Summer of 2001 a combined Dutch-Russian expedition took place to the Willem Barentz field station at Medusa Bay near Dikson in north-western Taimyr. The expedition was organized by Alterra, the Working Group for International Waterbird and Wetland Research (WIWO) and the Agricultural Department of the Dutch Embassy in Moscow. The results obtained by the Alterra team are presented in this report. Subjects of study generally concerned breeding biology of arctic breeding shorebirds, especially aspects related to timing of breeding and adult body condition. This report's purpose is not to discuss the findings thoroughly but merely to summarize the research questions addressed and present all basic information collected during the 2001 season. Topics included are spring arrival and autumn departure of waders from the tundra, breeding phenology, nest success, biometrics of adult waders, chick growth rate, return rates of adult shorebirds, and seasonal and weather-related variation in arthropod availability. Where useful, results are compared with data collected in a previous expedition in 2000. More elaborate analyses and discussion of the data will be made elsewhere

Spatial variation of epoxyscillirosidine concentrations in <i>Moraea pallida</i> (yellow tulp) in South Africa
Moraea pallida (yellow tulp) poisoning is economically the most important intoxication of livestock in South Africa. Poisoning varies according to locality, climatic conditions and growth stage of the plant. The primary objective of this study was to determine the concentration of the toxic principle, epoxyscillirosidine, in yellow tulp leaves and to ascertain the variability of epoxyscillirosidine concentrations within and between different locations. A secondary objective was to utilise Geographic Information Systems in an attempt to explain the variability in toxicity. Flowering yellow tulp plants were collected at 26 sampling points across 20 districts of South Africa. The leaves of five plants per sampling point were extracted and submitted for liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis. A large variation in mean epoxyscillirosidine concentrations, ranging from 3.32 μg/g – 238.27 μg/g, occurred between different geographical regions. The epoxyscillirosidine concentrations also varied tremendously between individual plants (n= 5) collected at the same sampling point, with up to a 24 times difference between the lowest and highest concentration detected. No generalised correlation between epoxyscillirosidine concentrations and soil elemental concentrations could be established. However, samples obtained from the north-eastern part of the sampling region tended to have higher epoxyscillirosidine concentrations compared to samples obtained from the south-western part of the sampling region. Higher toxin concentrations in the northeast were associated with statistically significant higher soil concentrations of iron, bismuth, bromide, cadmium, chromium, rubidium, tellurium, thallium, titanium and zinc, whilst soil concentrations of strontium and soil pH, were significantly lower. This study corroborated the contention that epoxyscillirosidine concentration in yellow tulp fluctuates and may explain the variability in toxicity
Natuurcompensatie op hoop van zegen (interview met Ingrid Tulp)
Met het zand van de tweede Maasvlakte kun je de Amsterdam Arena ruim 223 keer vullen. Het illustreert wat er voor de Zuid-Hollandse kust in zee is veranderd. Om het verlies aan zeebodem te compenseren, is een deel van de Voordelta aangewezen als bodembeschermingsgebied. IMARES onderzoekt of dit werkt voor de bodemfauna
