Profile

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

An Ass Shaking Jam about PCR?

Category: Ass Shaking Jams
Posted on: April 15, 2009 5:41 AM, by Isis the Scientist

This comes from loyal Isis the Scientist reader and frequent worshiper Elicia. I'll admit, at first I was skeptical, but I am finding myself with the need to get up, get up, and get down.

Video 1: Very cute, BioRad! You are rad, indeed.

Eppendork confesses to having watched this more than once and ran round the lab this afternoon going GGGG, TTTTT, C, AAAAAAAAAAA in her head.

You have got to be kidding me. Is this supposed to be an advertisement or something?

I would sing this in the lab except I'm pretty sure that song would get old after the 4 hours I have to wait for my samples to go through the thermocycler....

I wonder how many PCR units Bio-Rad sold with this song.

I'm a sucker for these biotech song and dance commercial. Sigh.. sad but true. Good thing the tech does the ordering for our lab and she is not so easily swayed.
