Uh, good. You're all here. We didn't get to finish talking about my research with free radicals and superoxide dismutase. It's good stuff.

Come on, you might learn something. Step into my office. Right over here.

Free radicals are the link to so many disease processes in the human body.

Ischemia, cancer, aging...

(Neela): I think that's a permanent marker.

Okay. There. I've done the hard part for you. That's an oxygen atom. Now, all you have to do is add the electrons.

(Abby) I know how to draw a damn oxygen atom. That guy just gives me the creeps.

Get the B.P. up, increase the cerebral oxygen delivery.

Right -- ready for the cruel twist? Ischemic brain needs oxygen. But did you know oxygen also forms free radicals after traumatic injury? Mother nature is such a b*tch.

Free radicals cause secondary cell death. You following?

Can we take a break from chemistry class while we code him, please?

The difference between a physician and a witch-doctor is an appreciation of the science beneath the disease. These trauma algorithms should be automatic for you by now.
