I am currently studying for a post graduate degree in pharmacology and this is one of my maps to try to get all the info into my head. They do not conform to traditional mindmap standards but I am trying to visualize everything as far as possible. Therefore the maps are quiet large. Diuretic one is 2.48MB at this stage and to date only about 80% complete.
