Heady Times: This Scientist Took the First Brain Selfie and Helped Revolutionize Medical Imaging

November 18, 2015
Early one October morning 30 years ago, GE scientist John Schenck was lying on a makeshift platform inside a GE lab in upstate New York. The itself lab was put together with special non-magnetic nails because surrounding his body was a large magnet, 30,000 times stronger than the Earth’s magnetic field.

    February 14, 2015
    Love and the heart go together like chocolates and Valentine’s Day. Starting with the ancient Egyptians, and maybe even sooner, humans believed that the heart was where the soul, emotions and wisdom dwelled.
