Plasticification Exhibit

[Eg.]

Does anyone know about this? Plasticification is the process of boiling cadavers in a latex soup, the water boils off and the latex fills the gaps. The cadaver becomes nearly permenantly preserved. Anyway there is a medical Exhibit of these guys, about 23 bodies, traveling the world. I know they are to visit New York soon, but does anyone know anything about it?

I saw it at the Cleveland Science Center. Interesting displays to say the least. I enjoyed it.
