Alexander Tsiaras: Conception to Birth Visualized As part of the TEDtalks series, Alexander Tsiaras presents a medical visualization of early human development (some graphic images.) Pretty outstanding graphic presentation.

Pretty strong pro-life aura to all of this (the overtly religious music, the reference to the fetus as "baby" when it's just a couple of cells, the continual insistence on the "divinity"/"magic" of the process).

That said, some striking images. I'm not sure if the actual birth images are scans or just CGI though. Did someone give birth inside an MRI for those? The images certainly look very highly processed.
