Epistemis is your medical study companion: guides, a real-image atlas and clinical tools in a single app that works OFFLINE. Built for medical students and for anyone preparing board exams (USMLE Step 1 and Step 2, MIR, ENARM), and useful on the ward too. GUIDES AND REVIEW • 764 guides across 40 subjects, each with three depth levels (Essential, Intermediate, Complete): the same guide adapts to whether you are in a hurry or want the detail. • 16,271 flashcards with spaced repetition (FSRS) and Anki deck import. The optimizer retunes the algorithm using your own history, on your device. • 48 guided study paths, mnemonics across 30 areas and branching clinical cases where your decisions change the outcome. • Highlighting, personal notes and a typo-tolerant search. EXAM PRACTICE • 5,103 board-style questions (2,288 MIR, 1,276 Step 1, 1,539 Step 2) with reasoning for every option, not just the correct one. 100% carry an explanation and no subject has fewer than 25. • 556 questions now show the radiograph, ECG or plate the stem talks about, taken from the app's own atlas. • Timed block exams with per-area reports and a performance curve. • More than 5,000 subject review questions, plus a mistakes notebook that brings them back when it matters. • Compare yourself with the cohort: submit a mock score —just the score— and see your percentile. Optional and off by default. REAL IMAGES AND SOUNDS • 6,803 real pieces with a teaching layer: 4,094 ECGs, 1,238 radiographs, 353 histology, 284 gross pathology, 168 dermatology, 114 anatomy plates, 38 auscultation sounds and 508 more across eight areas. Every case carries provenance, licence and an integrity fingerprint, and its editorial status is recorded in the atlas catalogue. • 38 real heart and lung auscultation sounds and layered 3D anatomy. • Every image shows its source and license. CLINICAL TOOLS • 317 calculators and scores across 27 specialties (CKD-EPI 2021, Cockcroft-Gault, CHA2DS2-VASc, Child-Pugh, NEWS2, Wells, qSOFA and more), always showing the formula and its reference. • Drug reference with 372 drugs across 21 systems, drug interactions and renal dose adjustment. • Differential diagnosis by clinical presentation, including the can't-miss diagnoses. • 34 interactive decision algorithms, lab values, a 9,659-term glossary and 1,082 symptoms with their red flags. • Emergency, consultation and OSCE station simulators. CLIO, YOUR AI TUTOR • Ask your guides: Clio answers from the app's own content and CITES where each statement comes from. • Analyzes images (an ECG, a radiograph, a lab report) and walks you through a systematic reading, step by step — up to three images per question. • Clinical Clio reasons through a case separating data, inference and uncertainty, and an audit checks it does not cite what does not exist. • Included when you sign in, with an allowance. You can also bring your own Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini key, with no limit. EVIDENCE AND RESEARCH • Source library, on-device PDF reading, PICO projects and reproducible PubMed queries. • Interpretation of RR, OR, HR, CI, ARR and NNT, plus a sensitivity/specificity and predictive-value lab. YOUR PROGRESS, WITH YOU • Works offline, always. An account is optional. • Questions and guide corrections arrive without waiting for a new app version. • With an account, your notes, cards and progress sync across devices and merge without losing anything. • No ads. No trackers. Your data is never sold or shared. — Disclaimer: Epistemis is educational and review material. It is not a medical device, it does not diagnose or prescribe, and it does not replace formal medical training, current clinical guidelines or the judgment of a healthcare professional.

Rotate, tap and learn the human body in 3D: from the whole body down to a single cell, with a little play every day. Human is a 3D anatomy app for nursing, medical and biology students, and for anyone who wants to understand how their body works. 3D organs you turn with one finger • 75 organs and structures in 3D, grouped into 12 body systems plus the cell: heart, brain, lungs, liver, kidneys, eye, ear, bones, neuron and more. • 365 hotspots: tap one to see what that part is called and what it does. • Every organ sheet reads like a museum plate: function, tissue, blood supply and fun facts, at Basic or Student level, or read aloud. The whole body, layer by layer • 2,234 pieces of the whole body in a single 3D model. • Switch systems on and off (skeleton, muscles, arteries, veins and more) and turn the body any way you like. Learn by playing • Level game: 124 levels across 15 chapters, from a single organ to the whole system, with a lightning round and a final level. • A new challenge every day: guess the mystery organ clue by clue, in 6 tries. It is the same for everyone, so you can compare results. • Find it: the app names a structure and you tap it on the model, with instant feedback. Review before you forget • Today's deck: spaced-repetition cards that bring back each organ right when it is due. • Memorize: chapters and zones of flip cards, until you know them all. See what happens inside • 25 pathways in 3D: follow an apple or a glass of water through the body, stage by stage. • The body in numbers: animated infographics on the heart, brain, lungs, liver and kidneys. • Extras: a 24-hour clock of what your body is doing right now, a BMI calculator, cardio, blood groups and metabolism. Conditions, organ by organ • The most common conditions of each organ, written as study material that puts the anatomy in context. Download once • The 3D models download the first time you open the app. After that you can explore the organs with no connection: in class, on a plane or with mobile data off. New pieces, videos and infographics arrive when you are online. Languages • Human is available in 13 languages, and you can switch in Settings. No account • No sign-up, no subscription and no in-app purchases. • Human contains ads. If you want a break, you can watch an optional video to pause the banners for a while. Important Human is an educational app about human anatomy. It is not medical advice, and it does not diagnose or treat any disease. If you are worried about your health, talk to a healthcare professional.
