About
I am a trained Cell Biologist who dabbles occasionally with biochemistry. My tools of the trade include a microscope and a joy-stick driven microinjector. I did my graduate work at Columbia University, studying the cytoskeleton of crawling cells. Currently I work at Harvard Medical School, figuring out the meaning of ... RNA and the endoplasmic reticulum. Like all crazed scientists who can't stop talking about their obsessions, these topics pop up in many posts.
But this blog, just like Seed Magazine, is not just about science, but art, food, music, citylife and other mental stimuli.
