There is an alternative, however: injure your own brain with, say, a stroke, and if you're not completely incapacitated in the process, carefully document the stages of the progress of this condition. This is exactly what happened to neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor, and what she came to discover about how the mind works, and some of the differences between the right and left hemispheres of the brain, is truly fascinating. As you'll see in this presentation, she is also a very passionate speaker, with a powerful message.
Would you be that committed to your profession? :)
