Just wanted to share that my first first-author paper is now online! In the journal Stem Cells and Development, here’s my paper on “Roles of Integrins in Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Growth on Matrigel and Vitronectin.”
Recently, I’ve become distracted by the cute flash puzzle games on EyeZMaze, and I think you should be distracted too. So dance, dance my pretties! (continued)
I’m back, and should post more, or so I keep telling myself. (continued)
I’ll admit I’m a teensy bit of a geek, and sometimes I like to revel in it.

Just read a fascinating (if lengthy) essay on disruptive technology and the future of scientific publishing. Well worth the read!
Just wanted to share Mint.com’s Visual Guide to Deflation, which is quite explanatory.
