Now on ScienceBlogs: "Investigative science journalism" and books I like to read [All of My Faults Are Stress Related]
"The universe is full of magical things, patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper." -- Eden Phillpotts.
GrrlScientist is an evolutionary biologist, ornithologist, aviculturist, birder and freelance science and nature writer. A native of the Pacific Northwest, she relocated from Seattle to NYC with her parrots after earning a BS in Microbiology (emphasis in Virology) and PhD in Zoology (Ornithology) from the University of Washington. In NYC, she was the Chapman Postdoctoral Fellow at the American Museum of Natural History for two years, pursuing part of her "dream" research project by reconstructing a molecular phylogeny of the parrots of the South Pacific islands. GrrlScientist has written a blog about science since 4 August 2004 (the early years are archived here) and was part of the original invited group of 14 "SciBlings" -- her only claim to fame. If you appreciate GrrlScientist's writing, please help her pay her living expenses by clicking on the Paypal button below and by voting for her to be the official blogger on a month long adventure in Antarctica. If you read an essay that you especially enjoyed, please nominate it for OpenLab2009.

Another stupid internet quiz. It's good for a laugh, but it is absolutely completely inaccurate.

About as accurate as an astrological chart. Mine said I'm a loner and a tech geek who loves robots more than people. Well, I might be a loner, but I'm a science geek and I prefer animals to robots--although maybe I could love those I-Cybie robotic toy dogs.

Ericnh; that's the perfect pet; no poop to scoop, although i would quickly starve if everyone in NYC replaced their cats with one or two of those things.
Psilo; i have no complaints, except i (desperately) want to change my font and i also want my own header, but those details are being worked on as we speak.
Dread Pirate Roberts; thanks so much! you guys are the bestest!
