One of my Neuroscience lectures detailed dendritic spines and I discovered this, thought you might be interested.

As a life long science geek, I found that to be fascinating. In my program (Samford) we are required to take a neuroscience class and although it was quite difficult it was very interesting "stuff".

After the first two months of this PhD program, I have found that we are taught "what we need to know" during anesthesia school. Its amazing what is developing. This is the first observation of this phenomenon and there is another "theory" for the mechanism of inhaled agents. If you google "oxygen pertubation and anesthetics" it should pop up.

Gotta say though I sure miss being in the OR.
