What happens when a genetic condition changes the shape of your entire face?

In this video, Masha explores cherubism, a rare condition that causes abnormal bone growth in the lower face, often giving children a distinctive, rounded facial appearance. We look at how cherubism affects the skull and jaw, and what happens as the condition progresses.

People always ask how we get things done at The Bone Museum.

The answer is probably a little less sophisticated than you’d expect: Post-it notes. A lot of Post-it notes.

I’m pretty old-school when it comes to staying organized. At the beginning of every month, I build out a wall of everything that needs to get done: projects, research, operations, exhibits, content, and all the random things that inevitably come with running a museum.

Then I chip away at it, one note at a time.

By the end of the month, the goal is for the wall to be empty. Then the next month starts, and we do it all over again.

I’ve been working this way for about eight years now, and while the projects have gotten bigger and the wall has gotten a little more chaotic, the system really hasn’t changed.

There’s something incredibly satisfying about physically taking a task off the wall and throwing it away.

Sometimes getting a lot done doesn’t require the fanciest productivity system. Sometimes it just takes a clear list, consistency, and a lot of Post-it notes.

A little behind-the-scenes look at how we keep things moving at The Bone Museum.

Osteosarcoma is an aggressive cancer that begins in bone-forming cells. As the tumor grows, it produces abnormal bone while destroying and weakening normal bone, which can cause pain, swelling, and sometimes pathologic fractures. It most often develops in the long bones, particularly around the knee, and can dramatically alter the structure of the affected bone.

In the early 20th century, Berlin-based A&P Seifert produced remarkably detailed anatomical preparations for universities, hospitals, and medical teaching collections.

This striking half-face model features the teeth, musculature, vasculature, and even the eye, carefully constructed to reveal the complex anatomy of the human face. Blending scientific accuracy with exceptional craftsmanship, preparations like this served as important teaching tools for generations of medical students.

Long before digital models and modern imaging, anatomy was often taught through meticulously handcrafted specimens that allowed students to study the human body in three dimensions. Today, surviving examples such as this offer a fascinating glimpse into the history of medical education and the artistry once required to bring anatomy to life.

Step into a realm where history and science converge at The Bone Museum in the heart of Brooklyn, New York.

In our latest video, we’re spotlighting several extraordinary pieces from the collection, including a skull showing the severe skeletal effects of multiple myeloma, a rare pair of conjoined twins, a skull demonstrating hemimandibular hyperplasia, and a medically mummified hand that Masha💀 doesn’t particularly like.

Each piece offers a powerful glimpse into the history of medicine, anatomy, and the human body.

And, of course, Bone Jovi couldn’t resist making a cameo.

Today we’re taking a closer look at Camurati-Engelmann disease, a rare genetic skeletal disorder that causes abnormal thickening of the bones, particularly the shafts of the long bones. We’ll explore how these changes can affect movement, cause bone pain and muscle weakness, and leave distinctive features visible in the skeleton.

In forensic anthropology, trauma can tell us when an injury occurred. Antemortem injuries happened before death and may show signs of healing, perimortem injuries occurred around the time of death, and postmortem damage happened after death. In this video, we break down how these differences can be identified in the skeleton.

What happens when a body disappears from the grave?

When John Scott Harrison, son of former U.S. President William Henry Harrison, died in 1878, his family discovered that his body had been stolen from its grave. Their search led them to a medical school, where they found Harrison’s body hidden in a dissection room.

His story offers a haunting glimpse into the 19th-century body-snatching trade.

Today marks two years since The Bone Museum reopened its doors after a catastrophic flood forced us to close for more than seven months.

At the time, we didn’t know what the future would hold—or if we would even be able to reopen. Through perseverance, hard work, and an incredible amount of support from our community, we made it through.

Two years later, the museum is stronger than ever. Thank you to everyone who has visited, followed, shared our work, and supported us along the way. We truly couldn’t have done it without you. 💀âĪïļ
