Art and Medicine

"Adenosine"

Perhaps my favorite drug in medicine, Adenosine, lasts only seconds in the bloodstream to correct many supraventricular tachycardias. Now, the art piece by the same name by Damien Hirst is on sale at Sotheby's for a cool $3,609,828 - $5,013,650.

Stare at the work for a while to see if it behaves the same way.
