This week on MonsterTalk, we interview Harvard medical doctor Steven Schlozman, author of The Zombie Autopsies and get inside the walking dead to discuss a plausible mechanism for the zombie apocalypse. It took a lot of guts, but in this episode we discuss:
-
How did a doctor become
interested in zombies?
-
What can zombies teach us
about neurology?
-
Which is scarier:
infection or cannibalism?
-
Why don’t zombies have sex?
-
What’s the best way to slice a brain?
-
What do brains taste like?
-
Plus much, much more!
Suggested Reading
(for younger MonsterTalk fans)
-

-
A great book for kids that teaches
anatomy with zombies.
