Just wanted to share that my first first-author paper is now online! In the journal Stem Cells and Development, here’s my paper on “Roles of Integrins in Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Growth on Matrigel and Vitronectin.”
The Rocky Mountain News wrote an article on my grandfather for their obituaries section. It’s interesting, especially since I didn’t know half of this stuff.
Anyway, my Dad thought I should post this link to it on my site, and I agree.
wow! that’s really neat! I had no idea your grandfather was such a big-wig at Gates! and it sounds like he had such an interesting life too 🙂
so..how come they didn’t interview you? 😉

ShortSpeedFreak - August 20th, 2004 at 11:50 pmI don’t know when I’ll get it, but I think they should be making copies soon.
Know what was really crappy, though? The church said it was recording the service, with my Dad’s speech and the singer and everything… and the tape turned out to be blank when all was said and done. But, we all still have the memory of it.
It’s werid– in younger pictures of my grandpa, I see at least some resemblence (though I also have a lot from my mother’s side). I wonder how I’ll look at 60 or so.

I’m sure that you could find some software somewhere that would theoretically age you . . . I could do on The Sims 2, if I could create one that looked enough like you. 🙂

Just read a fascinating (if lengthy) essay on disruptive technology and the future of scientific publishing. Well worth the read!
Just wanted to share Mint.com’s Visual Guide to Deflation, which is quite explanatory.
Hey all Paradoxdruid readers! I recently started up a blog on stem cells that I’d love you all to take a look at: http://www.allthingsstemcell.com/
I participated in another Barely literate book review podcast, this time on Nicholson Baker’s “The Fermata”. Give it a listen!
Obama has outlined a strategy for America, in great depth. Read all about Change.gov!
Okay, I’ll admit that it’s entirely possible that I am the last person to learn about this website*, but it’s really addictive.ÂÂ
