Me too! Further Immunology was *really* awful - it was taught by our second year Immunology lecturer, whom nobody knew what to make of, and who talked at the speed of a bullet. The highest grade anybody made in that class was an A-, of which there were only two.

Cancer research- you know, my cousin Ed was at Cambridge doing cancer research; he later moved to Oxford. Last I heard, he was doing AIDS vaccine research or something...

Oooh, what college? What department? smiley - geek

I knew a couple of Eds at Cambridge (both medics), but I shouldn't think either of them was your cousin!

Edmond Wee. He did his PhD in Cambridge, and then (for goodness knows *what* reason) moved to Oxford. And nope, he's not a medic - he's a microbiologist like me (only I didn't find out until my second year at uni).

Well, not only did von Hagens get two shows in the US, there is also a copy cat exhibit in San Francisco.

I don't know if any of these will make it to Houston or not yet.

Hmm... I *thought* that the original Heidelberg exhibition was moved to San Fran? Weird...
