I have had a very productive evening. I have made the brainstem out of plasticine, complete with cranial nerves 3-12 (1 and 2 don't arise in the brainstem). I have also made a cross section of the closed medulla at the motor decussation and am working on one of the sensory decussation. AND while I was doing this, I watched Amazing Medical Stories. So it's like double study points.
So finally I can grasp where the bits of brain attach to the brainstem and it's all making more sense.
I will need to get some more off-white plasticine when we move up to the cerebral hemispheres...
