Career

Von Hagens is best known for his plastination technique, which he invented and patented between 1977 and 1982.[8][9] In 1982, von Hagens was appointed a lecturer in the Institutes of Anatomy and Pathology at the University of Heidelberg, and in 1993 he founded the Institute of Plastination in Heidelberg. By 2004, he had been in the city for 22 years.[10] In 1996 he became a visiting professor at Dalian in China, where he ran a second plastination institute, and he also directed a plastination center at the State Medical Academy in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.[11] Since 2004, von Hagens had also been a guest professor at the New York University College of Dentistry.[11]

In its first twenty years, plastination was used to preserve small specimens of tissue for medical study. It was not until the early 1990s that equipment was developed to make it possible to plastinate whole body specimens, each specimen taking up to 1,500 hours of work to prepare.[12] The first exhibition of whole plastinated bodies took place in Japan in 1995. Over the next two years, von Hagens developed his first Body Worlds exhibition, showing whole bodies plastinated in lifelike poses and dissected to show various structures and systems of human anatomy, and these have since met with public interest and controversy in more than fifty cities around the world. The exhibition, and von Hagens's subsequent exhibitions Body Worlds 2, 3 and 4, had received more than 26 million visitors all over the world as of 2008.[13]

To produce specimens for a Body Worlds exhibition, von Hagens employed around 100 people at his laboratory in Guben, Germany. The plastinated giraffe which appeared in Body Worlds 3 & The Story of the Heart and is now part of Body Worlds: Animal Inside Out was one of the most difficult specimens to create,[14] taking a total of three years – ten times longer than it takes to prepare a human body. Ten people were required to move the giraffe, because its final weight, like all specimens after plastination, was equal to its original weight.[citation needed]

The Body Worlds exhibits were featured in a supposed Miami exhibition in the 2006 film Casino Royale, although the actual location for the exterior shots was the Ministry of Transport in Prague, Czech Republic. Von Hagens himself makes a cameo appearance in the film and can be seen leading a tour past where James Bond kills a villain.[citation needed]

He developed new body sectioning methods that yield very thin slices, which can then be plastinated and used for anatomical studies. He was also developing similar techniques for specimens as large as elephants. He worked in a concealed laboratory, with an entrance behind a movable staircase, where he developed his wafer plastination techniques.[15][16]
