Insane in the Brain
posted by Jen | 9:02 AM
At 8:46AM, I am usually just dragging into work. This morning, I’ve been here for 2 hours already, and I’m 44 minutes and 53 seconds into a 8 hour sim that will likely not include a single thing for me to do. Can you tell I’m still in my grumpy morning mood?
This article is pretty interesting. I never liked biology in school with all that kingdom-phylum-class-order-family-genus-species stuff. However, I’ve always been pretty fascinated with the human nervous system. When I was in college, I had a job running movie and slide projectors for classes. It was pretty cool because I could usually just set the machines up and then read or whatever. Anyway, once I was setting up a reel-to-reel type projector for a psych class. The movie turned out to be about brain function centers. I ended up watching the movie because I thought it was really cool. They showed how they could pinpoint which parts of the brain were controlling different functions by anesthetizing different sections and observing reactions.
Well, that blew almost 11 minutes. Whoohoo.
