Now on ScienceBlogs: Rhodes Secretary: Wall Street Megabonuses Draining Our Young Talent
The Egyptian goddess Isis was celebrated as the ideal wife and mother. The blogger known as Dr. Isis has some fancy-sounding degrees and is a physiologist at a major research university working on some terribly impressive stuff. She blogs about balancing her research career with the demands of raising small children, how to succeed as a woman in academia, and anything else she finds interesting. Also, she blogs about shoes. In fact, she blogs a lot about shoes.
...And behold, he raised the motherfucking Jameson on high as Isis bedecked her feet in glory, and the masses were sated. -- The Holy Gospel According to PhysioProf

It has come to my attention that there may have been an impostor posing as Isis at the recent ScienceOnline'09 conference. Apparently there was one young, hot female scientist-in-training strutting around in a fantastic pair of shoes and she...

Category: Ask Dr. Isis
Dr. Isis is largely indisposed at the moment. She's neck deep in some crazy-awesome science (or is it awesomely crazy?), and regrets that she's been unable to visit her supplicants, worshippers, toadies, and underlings. Instead, she sent me, the humble...

I have a science-y post for you later this evening (you know, after mama's had a glass of wine or two), but right now the domestic and laboratory goddess is a bit emotional. I am in the middle of cooking...

We've spoken previously about Dr. Isis's need to get in a daily run. When I don't run regularly, I am much more likely to completely lose my junk. Today I came close. Awfully, awfully close. I knew as soon as...

Alright. I think Dave Munger might be screwing with me. Earlier today I confess that I let my two year old watch Caillou and then I see highlighted on the ScienceBlogs front page that he's posted this. My delusion that...

Dr. Isis is enjoying a lazy Sunday morning, reading blogs and eating Cheerios, while Little Isis cuddles up next to the fire Dr. Isis built and watches Caillou. I absolutely fail to see the appeal of Caillou, but it is...

Recently one of my Sciblings, Dave Munger at Cognitive Daily, wrote a post in which he questioned whether Little Isis and I have conversations of if he is just mimicking me. I don't know who this Munger guy thinks he...

I think yesterday Mr. Isis new that Dr. Isis was having a rough day because, when I got home he had made me this: Video 1: "Mommy is beautiful and Mommy is pretty." Then Little Isis asks to go see...
