The Homunculus
Steve Higgins is a psychology graduate student at an online university. He hopes that the three weeks and $29.95 that he is spending on his Ph.D. will get him a job at a Tier 1 research university. Do online universities have postdocs? Ok...just kidding, Steve is a real graduate student at a real school.

About
Omni Brain is blogged by Steve Higgins, a psychology Ph.D. student of visual cognition at the University of Illinois.
Steve writes about the silly, sublime and serious infiltration of the brain sciences into popular culture. Topics range from commentary on research and public policy to absolutely off the wall things like how to create a realistic edible gelatin brain (vodka optional).
Sandra Kiume co-blogged here for a long time; notice her name on the byline in archived posts. You can still email her about those posts, other blogging, future projects, etc. Here's contact info for both her and Steve.
Steve's professional life is webatized here if you want to hire him in a few more years.
