Profile
The Evil Monkey has a Ph.D. in Neuroscience from a southeastern U.S. university. After a postdoctoral nightmare of Inquisitorial proportions, he is currently working in a laboratory and an adjunct assistant professor at a nearby state university.
Scicurious is a graduate student wrestling with a PhD in Physiology at a southern institution. She is a nerd, a geek, and also a dork. And yes, that really is her brain.
NotoriousLTP is an MD-PhD student in New York City. After finishing (hopefully soon) his PhD in behavioral neuroscience, he will re-enter the fun vortex that is medical education.

"GRAAAHHHHHH"
Category: Synaptic Misfires
The call, half roar, half terrifying honk of annoyance, echoed across the room. From the depths of a warm, comfortable nest, the monster stirred. Something was prodding it out of its lurid, murky dreams. "brrt, brrt, brrt... ...brrt, brrt, brrt..."...

Friday Weird Science: Sex: the good, the bad, and the ugly
Category: Friday Weird Science
But why should we do this? Why not pass on ALL our genes to our offspring, and not have to deal with other members of the species? Screw them, I want MY genes passed on!

A Few Things
Category: Synaptic Misfires
First off, how many is a "few"? I mean, I think of a "couple" as two, and a "few" as three. But what does that make five? "Some"? google_ad_client = "pub-0796843367768563"; /* 468x60, neurotopia */ google_ad_slot = "0450471034"; google_ad_width =...

Key paper in depression genetics disputed
Category: CNS Diseases and Disorders
I wanted to draw attention to a new paper in JAMA recently because it reveals a lot about how conditional most of the statements we make in behavioral genetics are. Every time you hear a news article that says, "Gene...

Interview of yours truly
Category: Synaptic Misfires
Looks like I got cornered by Ava over at Paw Talk for an interview. Go check it out. We talked about animal intelligence, modeling diseases using animals, and my stupid cat's antics. Good times! google_ad_client = "pub-0796843367768563"; /* 468x60, neurotopia...

Eating Grad Style: Free Food
Category: Academia
A few weeks ago, Sci posted on making Lab Cuisine. A couple of people responded well to this, and suggested that I post more on cheap eating as a grad student. Sadly, these people are deluded. Sci can't cook. At...

Bats in the Belfry
Category: Synaptic Misfires
Sci got home last night to a rather interesting occurrence. A bat in the house. Myotis lucifugus, I'm pretty sure. One of these: google_ad_client = "pub-0796843367768563"; /* 468x60, neurotopia */ google_ad_slot = "0450471034"; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 60; //-->...
