Only reason I still know weird words like "scolex" is because I'm basically back in vet school but learning all about the monkey and rodent diseases we never learned (and I just had to teach a seminar on mouse parasites). Hooray for residency!Hey. You're young(er) and you did it slightly more recently than me. And you do all that weird lab-animal stuff where you probably know about all those weird things. You remembered 'scolex' after all. 🙂
You know how we all remember one-off weird stuff that we have no reason to remember? I remember Eimeria truncata, the goose parasite. No idea why.
(It's not really as bad as vet school but it is somewhat similar at times)
