Meguro

Okay, biology- and medical-geek types: if you ever get a chance to go see the Meguro Parasitological Museum, do it! Here is a web tour (click the small image at the bottom of each page to go to the next).

I recognized several things we dissected or saw under the scope in biology last fall. I also identified heartworm on the first try, but I don't get much credit: the specimen includes a heart.

Ah, I've had several people express interest in going to the Parasitological Museum, but haven't actually been there myself. I hear that it's small, but cool.

Yes, I'd describe it that way. It's impressive!

On my last business trip to Tokyo, my co-worker insisted that that was the place we had to go!

Yes, a truly amazing place.

I was in heaven with all the specimens and names and life cycle posters. Rob was very patient with me. :)
