Due to the high epidemiological risk of the spread of a new coronavirus infection in March 2020 in the Russian Federation and in particular in the city of Saint Petersburg all educational institutions in the city, including medical ones, have switched to distance learning. Our article summarizes the experience of conducting practical classes in such a specific discipline as Anatomy in the conditions of distance learning for first-year students of medical higher educational institutions. The goal that should be achieved at the end of our anatomy course is to form students stable anatomical knowledge, and most importantly, a holistic view of the structure and function of the human body. Based on this, the main tasks that determine the direction of the pedagogical process are given, and the methods of pedagogical work used to increase the level of students assimilation of knowledge on human anatomy in distance learning are described. The Department of human anatomy of the Saint Petersburg state pediatric medical University uses the Discord platform, adapted by an initiative group of employees and students of the University for distance learning. At the same time, the staff of the Department believes that no matter how good the distance learning platform is, no matter how hard teachers and students try, it can not be a full-fledged substitute for normal full-time training.
