What happens when the brain never fully forms? Anencephaly is a rare and severe neural tube defect where major portions of the brain, skull, and scalp fail to develop during early pregnancy.

We explore how anencephaly leaves a distinct and sobering mark on the skeleton—and what those remains can teach us about early development gone awry. | The Bone Museum
