Brief Bio

I was born and raised in Kalamazoo MI. I earned my bachelors of science in biology from Western Michigan University. I met and fell in love with a big goof of a man named Cliff. I have a fat lazy cat named Kerby and a dog named Bear.

Well this is interesting

So apparently my alma mater is hosting a conference on Human Enhancement & Nanotechnology Conference. From the good people of http://www.nanoethics.org/. It’s free and open to the public, so I’ll have to see if I can attend.

Extreme nature helps scientists design nano materials

From Eureka Alert, A bacterial phage has been found in Iceland that can be used as a viral nanoparticle. Because of the way viruses work, they are ideal for self-assembly of materials.

Quote: “Future applications may be found in liquid crystal assembly, nanoscale templating, nanoelectronic and biomedical applications.” said Dr Dave Evans of the John Innes Centre.
