As I approach the third decade of my life, a great deal of anxiety overwhelms me.
Remember the first time you walked in on your parents performing the vertical dance?
Earthworms, salamanders and starfish are a seemingly unrelated group of creatures at first glance.
Some years ago, the use of nanotechnology in cancer treatment was all the rage in the medical community.
?Iron Man? is one of the best movies I have seen this year.
One of the holy grails of medicine (besides an anti-wrinkle cream) is a way to quickly dispose of jelly rolls, cellulite thighs and love handles.
How would you like to pick the color of your child?s eyes or hair before conception? Or give him or her an Albert Einstein IQ with the basketball skills of Michael Jordan?
?If you could have any superpower, what would it be??This question was presented to me multiple times as an adolescent (and even now); mainly because I?m a science geek who enjoys the company of other nerds.
Medical school can be painfully boring at times. Especially anatomy. I can't even begin to count the number of times I've woken up with slobber all over my anatomy picture book trying to memorize the details of every nerve and vessel.
"Ouch! This hurts. Why me?"Imagine having to prick your finger multiple times a day to maintain a life without health complications.
