The Association of Swiss Human Taxidermists (VSHP / ASPH / ASPU) is the only organisation in Switzerland that represents the interests of our profession in the three disciplines of anatomy, pathology and forensic medicine.

​

The association also assumes responsibility for the training of future human taxidermists in Switzerland, thereby guaranteeing a high professional standard.

​​

Its other tasks include the further professional training of human dissectors in theory and practice and support for their professional exchange in a spirit of solidarity. It also promotes co-operation with institutes and professional associations in Switzerland and abroad. 

​

The VSHP emerged from the Association of Swiss Anatomy - Pathology Preparators (VSAPP), which was founded in 1985 and currently has around 50 members.
