influenced by a great model i saw on flickr and the living brick, i just had to make it too, hope he doesn't mind.
It’s one thing to detect sites in the genome associated with mental disorders; it’s quite another to discover the biological mechanisms by which these changes in DNA work in the human brain to boost risk. In their first concerted effort to tackle the latter, 15 collaborating research teams of the National Institutes of Health-funded PsychENCODE Consortium leveraged statistical power gained from a large sample of about 2000 postmortem human brains.

Brain surgery recovery, no hair...I borrowed a friend's crazy wig and celebrated my ability to speak!
Ad avere un cervello siamo bravi tutti.
A saperlo usare siamo in pochi.
Mediare tra lui ed un cuore impazzito è un arte rara.
And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too,
I'll see you on the Dark Side of the Moon.

Waiting for my wife to wake up after a craniotomy to remove a tumor from the interior of her brain at the Mayo Clinic. This was the second surgery she had during her cancer journey, after receiving an adrenalectomy to have a softball-sized cancer tumor from her right adrenal gland removed.

I happened to look up and found this juxtaposition of signs amusing. Brainard St. is in Pasadena, CA. Do brainy ones take bikes, or should one not stop one's brain when biking?

Not mine.... I feel mine is bigger... But I was told it's life sized.
That was our whole small talk.
Awkward.

We had a mad scientist-themed yard, so this was the year's themed pumpkin. Not in the photo: eyeball-print ping-pong balls pushed into the side corresponding to the frontal lobe.
Right hemisphere frontal lobe image of the human brain focused on the pre-frontal cortex. This region of the brain processes numerous executive functions involving attention and memory.
Phineas Gage, the famous patient who sustained damage to his left prefrontal area in 1848 when a tamping rod was blown through his eye socket and out the top of his head (!!), suffered drastic personality changes that provided some of the first insights into the role of this area in cognition.
The bulging areas of the brain are the cortical gyri, which are composed of a folded layer of neurons, while the furrows are the sulci.
