Favorite Email of the Week

So, the embryology/histology final is on Friday... Not good considering there is 330 pages of histology notes + 100 pages (at least of images) and another 170 pages of embryology notes. Hopefully I'll be able to recall enough of it to do okay. Oral quizzing has been okay, but could be better.

These email messages made the studying all the better though (skim the first one, read the response):

Here is a better way to remember what is derived from Neural Crest cells...
