LONDON (AP) - Imagine looking at Leonardo da Vinci's heart sketch while listening to Hank Williams' "Your Cheatin Heart," or viewing a sculpture of an HIV-positive woman in a cast made from wax laced with the retroviral drugs she took to stay alive.
This is London's newest museum, where science, medicine and art meet.
Artifacts stand side-by-side with medical technology at the Wellcome Collection, a nine-story building that opened Thursday that houses more than 1,500 exhibits in three galleries, including a special exhibition examining the heart's role in medicine and culture.
