"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 and her five parrots are currently relocating to Germany, where she will continue writing her blog while also writing a book and learning German. (Meanwhile, her parrots will continue to nibble on her extensive personal library.) If you appreciate GrrlScientist's writing, you can help pay her living expenses by hiring her to "blog" your conference, speak at your club or write articles for your publication (or by clicking on the Paypal button below). If you read an essay on this blog that you especially enjoyed, please nominate it for inclusion in OpenLab2009.
Online interviews with GrrlScientist: Kolibri Expeditions, ScienceOnline09, Nature Blog Network and ScienceBlogs.
GrrlScientist's banner was designed by graphic artist, Jeff Hebert, whose other work can be viewed here.

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!
