Soliciting Submissions for Grand Rounds : Pure Pedantry

ScienceBlogs Book Club: Inside the Outbreaks

Reality is always more complicated than you think.

Profile

Jake Young is a MD/PhD student at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in NYC getting a PhD in Behavioral Neuroscience. He holds a BS and MS in Biological Sciences from Stanford University. If a volcano were to erupt Pompei-style in Central Park, his body would be preserved in a scoliotic posture over his lab desk. Archeaologists would later conclude that he spent most of his day training rats to perform tricks, until he went blind building electrical equipment by hand using a dissecting microscope. But, still, he died happy...because science is cool.

Pure Pedantry is a blog about science -- social sciences and otherwise -- as well as academic and scientific culture. No one can live on science alone, so I also like to dwell on pop culture, periodically explore the humanities, and indulge in other types of geeky goodness.

DISCLAIMERS: 1) Jake Young is not a licensed physician (yet). He is merely a medical student. The information published on this site is not intended for use in medical decision-making. Please seek advice from a licensed, medical professional before making any health decisions. 2) The opinions expressed are my own.

Soliciting Submissions for Grand Rounds

Category: Carnivals
Posted on: July 28, 2008 2:52 PM, by NotoriousLTP

Just a heads up. Next week on August 5th (Tuesday) I will be hosting the illustrious medicine carnival Grand Rounds. (Has it been a year and a half since I did this last? Jeez I have been doing this forever...)

Anyway, here is how you submit. Send an email with your name, your blog, the url to the post, and a sentence description of it to jamesjyoung **at** gmail. The submission deadline is Monday August 4th at 6 pm as I will be writing the carnival that evening.

Haven't decided on a theme for this yet, so just give me your best. I am looking forward to reading all of your posts!
