AT THE CONVERGENCE OF EVOLUTION AND GENETICS
About evolgen
We talk about molecular population and evolutionary GENETICS and GENOMICS. You know, the caliper measurement of a gene's evolvability in moles.
Eschewing obfuscation ever since Morgan.

You Call This a Blog?
Wow, posts at evolgen have been few and far between. A damn, dirty manuscript is to blame. I keep trying to get it write itself, but the sucker refused to oblige. Maybe it would help if I could finish...Posted on August 12, 2007 4:15 PM • 0 Comments

Keep Your Gloved Hand Away From Me
Much of the lab work that goes on in the life sciences requires that the experimenter wear rubber gloves. The gloves protect you from your samples, and they protect your samples from you. So what does it say about someone's care for their research project when they run around their building with gloves on? What does it say about their care for the other people with whom they share that building?Posted on November 22, 2006 9:00 AM • 8 Comments
Things I Found in Lab
So I'm back doing lab work again. That means I'm stumbling across weird stuff that Dylan might get a kick out of. Before I could start isolating any DNA, I had to make sure all my reagents and buffer solutions...Posted on September 19, 2006 8:00 AM • 0 Comments
Dispatches from the Lab
