So, this is a picture of "the internet"  (http://www3.nd.edu/~networks/Image%20Gallery/gallery.htm). I was wondering for all you pre-med's out there, what resources do you find are missing? What are you looking for that you just can't find?

What happens when someone slips into a vegetative state? Do they feel pain? Do they think? Without consciousness, do they ostensibly cease to exist? Such questions have haunted neuroscientists—and countless family members of coma victims—for ages. But new research is shedding light on these issues and what is a larger existential question about the nature of consciousness itself.

Ian Waterman woke up one morning and realized that his body was gone. In reality, it was still there, but Ian had lost all proprioception—the body’s awareness of positioning in space, often considered a sixth sense—from the neck down. Based on his collaboration with neurophysiologist Jonathan Cole, performance artist Andrew Dawson presents The Articulate Hand, a media-rich, on-stage portrayal of patients whose peculiar impairments—physiological and neurological—provide stunning insights into just how we humans are wired, and how adaptable that wiring may be.
