Human brain dissected in half
Human brain dissected in half. A human brain dissected into right and left hemispheres. It has been donated for medical research at the Harvard Brain and Tissue Resource Centre, USA. One half will be preserved in formalin and stored for anatomical study. The other half will be sliced into sections and frozen for genetic and biochemical study. The Harvard Brain and Tissue Resource Centre is the largest brain bank in the world. It stores over 3, 000 healthy and diseased brains, which are available to researchers studying disorders such as Parkinsons disease, Alzheimers disease and schizophrenia
