I am a neurologist and neuroscientist on the faculty at the University of Central Florida Medical School.  Originally, I started this site when I was at Dartmouth Medical School to list links that could be good teaching resources for medical students and residents there. The main contenct still consists of the numerous categorized links to neurology, neuroscience, and other medically related topics.  Recently I have added more content in the form of news feeds and a Blog. Let me also make the disclaimer that these are just references to information.  Do not  rely on what you find here to treat yourself or anyone else. Physicians and other health care providers must use their own judgement and multiple inputs from many sources to reach decisions. Information found here is not diagnostic or treatment advice from me or from this web site. If you have any suggestions or comments, you may leave them in the Guestbook.----Thank you.

Thor...the Movie. An "Od(in)ious Version of the Comic?
Dr. Sharon Packer, Psychiatrist and Movie Critic Extraordinaire, has reviewed Thor in her online column at http://www.hcplive.com/pop-medicine/Thor-From-Myth-to-Marvel-Comics-to-Movies-to-Medical-Commentary. Dr. Packer likes many aspects of the film but feels that it gives short shrift to the "true" comic book origins of the main character who is simultaneously a physically challenged but brilliant young surgeon Dr. Blake and the might Norse god Thor.  Packer gives us some insight into the often discussed "God complex" which the public has attributed to some physicians.
