Pure Pedantry has a new co-blogger: Kate Seip of Anterior Commissure

I am pleased to announce that Pure Pedantry is being joined by another wonderful, erudite and articulate co-blogger: Kate Seip. Kate formerly ran a blog called Anterior Commissure that many of you have probably read. She is a PhD student at Rutgers, and she also co-organizes the Science Communication Consortium -- a speaking and lecture series about science communication in society. (You can read more about her on our About Page.)

Kate specializes in maternal, sexual, and mating behavior -- subjects that are always good for a burst of traffic. That being said, she regularly exceeds all expectations with the quality of her analysis.

I am happy to have her, and I look forward to reading her always-interesting posts.

Welcome, Kate.

UPDATE: Kate also has an entry in this year's science blog anthology, Open Lab 2007. The book was favorably reviewed in the latest issue of Nature (subscription only).

Pure Pedantry is a great blog. Jake writes some cool neuroscience stuff, and an occasional political post I disagree with (but not enough to start a blogwar). Kara Contreary has recently retired (though we'll see how long that lasts!) so Jake has been all alone and wondering what to do. Of…
Happy New Year to everyone! I'm back from my lovely New Years vacation, and I wanted to take a moment to look back on my first full year as a blogger for ScienceBlogs.com. (This will be for the last year and a half actually, since I didn't do this last New Year's.) First, let's do some numbers.…
There are 85 days until the Science Blogging Conference. The wiki is looking good, the Program is shaping up nicely, and there is more and more blog and media coverage already. There are already 106 registered participants and if you do not register soon, it may be too late once you decide to do…
Three great new bloggers have joined the ScienceBlogs team: Kate Seip has joined Jake at Pure Pedantry. You may remember her excellent blog Anterior Commissure.

Yeay! One of my favouritest bloggers is joining the family! Welcome!

New inputs are always welcome, especially from under-represented female scientists. I got a lot of amusement out of "Young & Contr(e)ary" How on Earth am I going to work a "Seip" into that? It is the palindrome of "pies", but that just doesn't do it somehow....

Hurray! Our piteous cries for her return have been answered!

Sounds like you will have to get a bigger hit counter, with more numbers on it! LOL!
