My scientific specialty is chronobiology (circadian rhythms and photoperiodism), with additional interests in comparative physiology, animal behavior and evolution. I am not an MD so I cannot diagnose and treat your sleep problems. As well as writing this blog, I am also the Online Discussion Expert for PLoS. This is a personal blog and opinions within it in no way reflect the policies of PLoS. You can contact me at: Coturnix@gmail.com

A few days ago, Peggy and Stephanie asked the blogosphere a few questions about the relationship between science and Science Fiction. They want to use the insights from the responses to run their session - Science Fiction on Science Blogs - at the ScienceOnline09 meeting in January.

They got lots of responses - interesting reads for the long holiday weekend:

Responses from the SF Writer Point of View

Responses from the Science Point of View
There's also discussion of the topic going on at io9.


I did not find time (yet) to write my own responses. Perhaps I will - no promises, as I may feel, after reading everyone else's posts, that I have nothing to add. In the meantime, you can check out (if you have missed them before) some of my old posts related to Science Fiction:
