That research is fowl

Today I had a seminar on how to give a scientific presentation. Sounds pretty boring, right? This is especially true when you've given enough of them that it's "old hat."

Ah, but then our presenter warned us on the dangers of having presentations that all sound alike. It was in that that I saw the funniest piece of science EVAH.


This is the way science should be done.

I can't find that powerpoint presentation, but it's based off of this journal article here.

Man, I need to get into that journal.

The More Things Change

Ah, you know the drill.

I know I've been absent for a while, but my excuse this time is that I've moved 900 miles away. That'll keep you busy for a while.

Anyhow, I'm mostly settled into Baltimore now. It's a bit strange, but I think I'll manage. You should get some posts out of me relatively soon. I'm still trying to get into a good groove. A regular posting schedule will probably come with the start of school in two weeks. In the mean time, there'll probably be stuff popping up sporadically.

Oh, did I mention I also adopted the world's cutest kitty?
