UNITED STATES - NOVEMBER 19: Visitor contemplates a preserved brain on the opening day of "Bodies...The Exhibition" in the new Exhibition Centre at the South Street Seaport. The display includes 22 real bodies and more than 260 organs and partial-body specimens that have been gathered from a Chinese university and treated with liquid silicone rubber in a new technique called polymer preservation. The bodies have been stripped down and arranged in various real-life positions to show the workings of muscles, nerves, tendons and organs.
