A giant video screen that takes up an entire wall, floor to ceiling, is allowing scientists to see details they've never seen before. Developed at Tufts University with help from the National Science Foundation, the Visualization Wall has a variety of applications. The "VisWall" offers a surgeon the opportunity to teach and practice surgical procedures on avatar renditions of the human body.
