The Museum of Medical Archives, recognised as Kerala’s first private medical museum, was inaugurated in Ulloor, Thiruvananthapuram, on May 26, 2026. It was established by A Sivaraman, a former artist-modeller from the Government Medical College in Thiruvananthapuram. The museum showcases handcrafted anatomical models, microbiology archives, and educational exhibits that visually represent complex medical concepts such as embryology, circulation, and cellular processes. Its primary aim is to convert textbook-based diagrams into accessible three-dimensional learning tools for students, children, and the general public. The museum also highlights the long history of medical education in Kerala and the evolution of scientific teaching aids.
