French doctors are amazed that a 44-year-old civil servant with an abnormally small brain has led a normal life with a slightly lower than normal IQ........
Doctors said the father of two went to the Hopital de la Timone in Marseille with mild weakness in his left leg. He was given a CT scan and an MRI, which showed that his cerebral cavities or ventricles had massively expanded..........
"The brain itself, meaning the grey matter and white matter, was completely crushed against the sides of the skull," ....... "The images were most unusual... the brain was virtually absent."

Interesting....
Are the neurons in his small brain very dense (in other words, are the numbers of neurons in his brain close to normal)?

Yes, people were SO sure that they could tell Schiavo's personhood by looking at the size of her brain. They were being scientific doing this.

Everyone knows you don't need a brain to work for the government.

Report: Man with Almost No Brain Has Led Normal LifeI wouldn't say that being the U.S. Senate Majority Leader is a "normal" life.
