Rufus Weaver and Harriet Cole
Sawbones: A Marital Tour of Misguided Medicine - A podcast by Justin McElroy, Dr. Sydnee McElroy - Tuesdays
In the 1880s, anatomist Rufus Weaver worked meticulously to extract and mount the human nervous system for study. The nervous system came from a woman named Harriet Cole; but how was it actually obtained? Dr. Sydnee dissects this medical mystery, which is a telling story of who in history is celebrated and who is often forgotten. Music: "Medicines" by The Taxpayers https://taxpayers.bandcamp.com/
