It takes more than a steady hand to operate on the central nervous system. Neurosurgeons rely on new technology to extract tumors from the brain, repair damage to the spinal column or deflate ballooning aneurysms. Classes visiting Liberty Science Center view operations through the surgeon's eyes, and they can query the surgical team during the procedure. Students leave with in-depth knowledge of neurosurgery and the factors that may have put the patient in the operating room.
