Tomorrow morning Rebecca Skloot will be on WHYY's Radio Times with Marty Moss-Coane. She will, of course, be talking about The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. You can tune in and listen on the web here. Radio Times starts at 10 a.m. EST but Skloot is scheduled for the second hour of the show, at 11 a.m.
She will also be at the Wistar Institute in Philadelphia tomorrow evening and I am planning to go.
Of course, it is supposed to start snowing again this evening and throughout tomorrow. Oh, I know, not anything like what we've had in the past week. Just a few inches. Just enough to make venturing out miserable and possibly hazardous. Sigh.
Maybe it will all be cleared away by 7 p.m., and the trains will be running on time!
