Cardiovascular embryology is explored in this web site.  The text is detailed and well referenced so as to benefit medical students and researchers in this field.  In addition, a summary at the onset of each segment is aimed for readers with no medical background.  The illustrations and animations should benefit both medical professionals and researchers as well as non-medical individuals interested in this subject. The text was prepared by Ra-id Abdulla, MD and is largely extracted from "Cardiovascular Embryology (2004). Ra-id Abdulla, , Greg A. Blew and Mark J. Holterman. Pediatr Cardiol 25(3) pp 191-200" .    This web site has evolved significantly over the past few years, the 2-D illustrations were prepared by Ra-id Abdulla, MD.  The newer and more sophisticated 3-D images and animations were prepared in collaboration with Mr. Gregory Blew of University of Illinois at Chicago.  Mr. Blew is a fantastic medical illustrator with enormous talent.
