Subject: Re: [PSCI-COM] Wanted: a brain and a molecule.
I was down at the new Wellcome Trust exhibition yesterday, and these are
the kinds of thing they have, it might be worth giving them a shout
given how fond they are of science/art crossover. Techniquest might be
able to help too, you being in Wales. I'm pretty sure we had a cut-away
brain somewhere in the system when I was there.
