If you have a moment, please pop over and welcome new Scibling Rebecca Skloot of Culture Dish:
I blog about whatever catches my attention, which makes Culture Dish hard to categorize (though the tagline "Science, Writing, and Life" pretty much covers it). Generally speaking, I post about science and ethics (like the use of DNA for racial profiling, and questionable studies of fake blood), as well as science writing, the ethics of science book reviewing, and anything I stumble on related to the history of science.
(I first read her blog title and thought "Cool! she dishes about culture!" The alternative (biological) meaning took a few days to register - guess it's been a while since I worked at the bench.)
Welcome Rebecca!
