The Singin' Scientist



"There is a moment in the middle of my presentation when the audience realizes, 'Oh my god, she wants my brain.'"

Jill Bolte Taylor, also known as the "Singin' Scientist," is a neuroanatomist specializing in post-mortem research. She's a spokesperson for the Harvard Brain Bank and encourages people to donate their brains.

"I travel with my guitar and sing the brain-bank jingle."

It's not available on MP3 just yet, sadly, but hopefully someone will record it.

Learn more at 1-800-Brain Bank. Also, sponsor Dr. Bolte Taylor in the upcoming NAMI Walks. Pledge your money AND your brain!
