Now on ScienceBlogs: Trying to understand the Norwegian swine flu mutations
Stronger. Faster. Bloggier. Now chock full of glial goodness. **Warning** contains neuro-nuts.
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.

Encephalon is up at Neuronarrative. Sadly, Sci was too lazy/busy/crazy/dumb to submit one of our posts, but there's plenty there to see! Especially a post from the Neurocritic on the clitoral homunculous!!! I really wish I had seen that one...
