I am looking for models of 1) heart; 2) models of diseases of 
the cardiovascular system (i.e. atherosclerosis), and 3) circulatory system 
models.  These would be used for classroom demonstrations (all grades 
K-12, and beyond) and laboratory teaching aids. I have found 1 model of 
blood flow through the various chambers of the heart @ Edmund Scientific 
(www.edsci.com) but am interested in more advanced models.

Furthermore, does anyone know a source (laboratory manual; personally 
designed expts.) of classroom or more advanced laboratory experiments
(everything from simple to advanced) exploring the cardiovascular and/or 
circulatory system?

Your help greatly appreciated.

Look for "Carolina Biological Supply".  This outfit has all sorts of
teaching aids of the type you require.

Sorry, but Ido not have the address.  Perhaps a web search will locate
them.  I would'nt be surprised if your school has a copy somewhere;
Carolina Supply is a big business.  THeir catalog is ~1.5 inches
thick.

Be prepared to pay premium prices from Carolina, but they've got
everything.
