The first working interhuman penis transplant. Urination? Check. Sexual function? Check. A veritable functioning Frankenpenis. Big Cojones Christiaan Barnard performed the first […]

Do you believe in evolution? Apparently, over 6 in 10 Americans do. Since described by Darwin over 150 years ago, every aspect of evolution has been, and continues to be, hotly debated. But what fascinates me most about evolution is not who runs the show, but how it actually might happen.

The case of the month is an actual patient of The Turek Clinic. He was wary as he walked into the office, as though he were doing something illegal. “Doc,” he said, “I’m lined up to do a blind sperm retrieval soon and I keep hearing about this mapping thingie. Not sure what I should […]
In the Dune miniseries by David Lynch, a tremor felt in the desert of Arrakis usually meant that a huge, quarter-mile-long sand worm would soon surface and inhale acres of sand and anything on it.
