I'm currently attending the Grand Opening of the new Laboratory at Harvard University, "an exhibition and meeting space for student idea development within and between the arts and sciences," for a special colloquium on Art, Science, and Creativity featuring David Edwards (author of ArtScience), Lisa Randall, and others. This is awesome. Stay tuned for a report tomorrow.

BioE Holiday Giving
This year's BioE holiday nonprofit is the Clarkston Education Foundation, a small-town scholarship fund that - among its many projects - helps local students attend research universities, pre-med and pre-nursing programs, contributes science equipment to the local high school, and funds hands-on projects and activities thought up by creative local teachers.
Thanks to SEED/Sb, my BioE blog revenues for November and December will be donated directly to CEF. Read more about CEF, and help send a young mind to college!
Give to CEF thru Paypal!

Did you stay for datamatics? It was incredible! It was such a fascinating exploration and use of scientific (and especially biological) data. I posted about it on my blog and I'm curious about what you think!
