The Institute of Neurological Science (INCN) in Lima houses the only "Brain Museum" in Latin America. The collection contains over 3000 samples from which around 300 are on permanent display, including brains with diverse cerebral diseases and anomalies as well as fetal brains with abnormalities. Unique photomicrographs and other items are also on display.
I discuss issues pertaining to the practice of neuropathology -- including nervous system tumors, neuroanatomy, neurodegenerative disease, muscle and nerve disorders, ophthalmologic pathology, neuro trivia, neuropathology gossip, job listings and anything else that might be of interest to a blue-collar neuropathologist.
