Mostly I am pleased with myself lately, since it's been a little harder to get others to post. I'm writing a little series on fluorescent proteins in molecular biology, inspired by my FRET workshop last month. We also have a post on tautonyms from the other regular blogger in the group, and the second in her series is in the sidebar (I'm reposting it early next week). And there's loads of great stuff since the last time I promoted it here, from a bunch of people.
It continues to be hard to get people to post about anything that isn't their own research, which surprises me. There are enough journal clubs around that we have to know and summarize other research anyway, and isn't loving science in general why we're in grad school at all? Maybe people just don't like to write. (But how can that be?)
Anyway, I would really appreciate it if you guys could follow/like/reblog/whatever if you like our posts, and we could definitely use some more comments. I at least am attempting to write for a lay audience, so I need feedback on what doesn't make sense to people who aren't biologists. I'm losing sight of it a bit with immersion and no teaching. Wim is too smart to work as a naive audience any more; he actually retains my explanations from last time. :)
