Science of Surviving the Zombie Apocalypse

Share it:

All tongue-in-cheek. And a huge thanks to Bradley Voytek, Timothy Verstynen and the Zombie Research Society for the research and help with this infographic. The infographic is based off the presentation Scanning the Zombie Brain by Dr. Bradley Voytek.
