Profile
Shelley Batts is a Neuroscience PhD candidate at the University of Michigan. She studies hair cell regeneration in the cochlea, and is just embarking on that quixotic quest called 'thesis.' She lies awake at night pondering how science intersects with politics, culture, policy, money, medicine, and religion in an attempt to be more than just a niche scientist sitting in the oh-so-lovely ivory tower. Follow me and my parrot on the quest to get funded, get a PhD, and stay sane.
Those who dwell, as scientists or laymen, among the beauties and mysteries of the earth, are never alone or weary of life. ~Rachel Carson

MOOP-BOOP-BEEP *"We're sorry, but the number you have reached, 567-5309, is not the number in that annoying song with the chorus that clung to your brain like a wad of chewing gum clings to the sole of your shoe. That number was 867-5309. Please check the number and try your blog again"* AWP-AWP-AWP-AWP-AWP-*click*

Awesome job Greg! Thanks for putting them all together.

Don't feel bad for mis-dialing the phone number; if memory serves, the song was about "Jenny," not "Shelley" anyway. Of COURSE you've got a different number...
