My visit to Purdue

Jen has the full account, complete with a video, of my talk. I was a rude boy.

Right now, I'm in Bloomington, at the "Current Frontiers in Evolution, Development and Genomics" conference. I gave the keynote last night — which means I am now free to sit back and simply enjoy the meeting without fretting over a silly talk any more. I think I'll be able to get online in the auditorium, so you may be subject to more live-blogging of evo-devo over the course of the day.

I see we've got events scheduled all day long, up to 11pm. I might die.

We had Neil Shubin here last week, and now Jerry Coyne is guest-blogging at The Loom. I look forward to the day that I can just sit back and invite prominent scientists to do my work for me here. Although, I have to say that while Coyne is largely correct, he's being a bit unfair. He's addressing…
