...movie, Last Tango in Paris, should be patient. There is more to come. Much more. Bertolucci has marshaled his opulent visual style to tell a stark story of sex as a be-all and end-all. For boldness and brutality, the intimate scenes are unprecedented in feature films. Frontal nudity, four-letter words, masturbation, even sodomy-Bertolucci dwells uncompromisingly on them...

As reported in last week's issue of Science, the group attempted to restore mental functioning in 21 rats whose brains had been damaged by removal of large sections of the frontal cortex. This section of the brain is involved in the learning of complex spatial relationships.

The researchers used fetal cells because they are rich in growth factors and adapt easily to a new environment.
