Biography

Professor Rea is an internationally recognised leading expert, in the applications of digital technologies to biomedical/medical visualisation in education, clinical settings, and industry linked research. Initially he trained in Medicine, undertaking roles in general medicine, paediatric surgery, and emergency medicine, followed by a period as a pathologist. He then changed direction, pursuing a clinical anatomy educator role as Full Professor of Digital and Anatomical Education. It was in academia he realised the potential digital technologies had for education, simulation, training, and public/civic engagement. He led the strategic partnership with the School of Simulation and Technology (SIT), The Glasgow School of Art (GSA), and founded the MSc Medical Visualisation and Human Anatomy, following significant grant funded research. This degree improved graduate employability and had significant high profile media coverage. He was the founding, and now Series Editor (Editor-in-Chief equivalent) for the internationally acclaimed Biomedical Visualiz(s)ation book series with Springer Nature. He holds strategic leadership roles for innovation, engagement, and enterprise; body donation; education and previously project management for large scale infrastructural developments. Professor Rea is a Licensed Teacher of Anatomy, licensed by the Scottish Government, and has held this role for nineteen years.

He is also the Director of Innovation, Engagement and Enterprise within the School of Medicine, Dentistry and Nursing, a role he has held since August 2022. He is responsible for leading, delivering and managing the three pillars of the strategy: driving innovation and enterprise; employability for careers and growing entrepreneurs and regional economic and societal impact.

Books

Biomedical Visualization

Series Editor: Biomedical Visualisation volumes in Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology, Springer International Publishing (Springer Nature Switzerland AG) 2018 – ongoing. My role previously was to source and coordinate all publishing authors globally, it expanded to become its own independent series with a slight title change (only by spelling!) to Biomedical Visualization. With this growth, I have now recruited international Editors to work with me who identifying themes, chapter contributors, editing, and senior leadership roles in this series, where I work as the equivalent Editor in Chief now. In total, there are 23 book volumes published as the series grows from strength to strength.

Impact:

I have published 11 volumes as sole editor and have 6 volumes published with 7 additional Editors in the current format and 6 in the new Biomedical Visualization series i.e. 17 in this series.

So far, over 537 authors from over 138 institutions across 24 countries contributed to the 231 chapters. There have been more than 217K downloads, 1099 citations, and read in 79 countries so far.

As the Series developed into Biomedical Visualization, I have globally recruited Editors, who have led thematic editions detailed below. This has published 6 volumes so far, with 5 in press.

Clinical Anatomy Textbooks

Essential Clinically Applied Anatomy of the Peripheral Nervous System in the Head and Neck

Essential Clinically Applied Anatomy of the Nerves in the Head and Neck presents the reader with an easy access format to clinically-applied peripheral nervous system (PNS) anatomy. Perfect for a quick reference to essential details. The chapters review nerves of the head and neck, the origin(s), course, distribution and relevant pathologies affecting each are given, where relevant. The pathologies present typical injuries to the nerves of the PNS, as well as clinical findings on examination and treatments. It details modern clinical approaches to the surgery and other treatments of these nerve pathologies, as applicable to the clinical scenario. This can be found with Elsevier HERE.

Essential Clinical Anatomy of the Nervous System

Essential Clinical Anatomy of the Nervous System is designed to combine the salient points of anatomy with typical pathologies affecting each of the major pathways that are directly applicable in the clinical environment. In addition, this book highlights the relevant clinical examinations to perform when examining a patient’s neurological system, to demonstrate pathology of a certain pathway or tract. Essential Clinical Anatomy of the Nervous System enables the reader to easily access the key features of the anatomy of the brain and main pathways which are relevant at the bedside or clinic. It also highlights the typical pathologies and reasoning behind clinical findings to enable the reader to aid deduction of not only what is wrong with the patient, but where in the nervous system that the pathology is. This can be found with Elsevier HERE.

Essential Clinically Applied Anatomy of the Peripheral Nervous System in the Limbs

This volume is designed to combine the salient points of the anatomy of the PNS with typical pathologies affecting the nerves of the upper and lower limbs. The book is a quick reference guide for those studying and treating neuromuscular disease such as neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists, and clinical neurophysiologists. Readers will find easy-to-access facts about the anatomy of the nerves in the limbs, coupled with clinically applied scenarios relevant to that area being discussed, as well as clinical findings on examination. The book's purpose is to provide the reader with a succinct presentation of the relevant anatomy of the PNS in the limbs and how it is directly applicable to day-to-day clinical scenarios. It presents the reader with an easily accessible format to clinically applied PNS anatomy that is perfect for quick reference. Chapters review the nerves of the upper and lower limbs, and the origins, course, distribution and relevant pathologies affecting each. These pathologies present typical injuries to the nerves of the PNS, as well as clinical findings on examination and treatments. This can be found with Elsevier HERE.

Clinical Anatomy of the Cranial Nerves

Clinical Anatomy of the Cranial Nerves combines anatomical knowledge, pathology, clinical examination, and explanation of clinical findings, drawing together material typically scattered throughout anatomical textbooks. All of the pertinent anatomical topics are conveniently organized to instruct on anatomy, but also on how to examine the functioning of this anatomy in the patient. Providing a clear and succinct presentation of the underlying anatomy, with directly related applications of the anatomy to clinical examination, the book also provides unique images of anatomical structures of plastinated cadaveric dissections. These images are the only ones that exist in this form, and have been professionally produced in the Laboratory of Human Anatomy, University of Glasgow under the auspices of the author. These specimens offer a novel way of visualizing the cranial nerves and related important anatomical structures. This can be found with Elsevier HERE.

Public Engagement and Knowledge Exchange

Professor Rea has led major public and civic facing engagement events and initiatives:

Hunterian Museum of Anatomy Showcase

Since September 2023, he collaboratively created, managed, and coordinated monthly events where he has opened the Museum of Anatomy to the wider public. These events have been attended by c.350 visitors and enabled and facilitated communities to learn about health and disease, anatomy, pathology, and the history of anatomy. This has been achieved via our Hunterian collections (human anatomy, including the gravid uteri; 18^th century) and comparative anatomical collections from John Cleland (c.19^th century) as well as our prosected teaching collections for school groups.

Night at the Museum of Anatomy

Professor Rea created, managed, and delivered 5 major public engagement events (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5), coordinating partners from the School of Innovation and Technology (GSA), RCPSG, NHS, University of Edinburgh, and Hunterian Museum. These were delivered by 40 academics, clinicians, heritage officers and students to over 560 members of the public attending. These events focussed on surgical techniques, history of anatomy/surgery, human anatomy in health and disease, sheep heart dissections, extended reality, body painting and arts and crafts.

Science Festivals

Professor Rea has coordinated numerous events locally and as part of established festivals UK wide, which have been attended by >2,000 people, including the Museum of Anatomy events listed above. The following I have directly led, coordinated and managed.
