I am drilling into the skull using my micro-drill, and looking through my microscope.

The skull is removed, and now I am cutting the dura (thin covering around brain) so that I can reach the motor strip (part of brain associated with motor function). Jungkook is still spewing isotopic saline solution as I am doing work.

 I set the micro-drill down, and ask Jungkook to hand me the forceps( tweezers) and scissors. I also ask him to keep pouring saline solution on the brain.

              

I also use a silk sutures to keep the dura back so that I have a clear view of the underlying brain
