It’s like a square dance! Get up, Go to work! Spin your samples, go berserk! 14 hour protocol! No time to rest, must do them all! Pipette them in, and out and then Turn around and do it again! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCqAri4wtjQ Except not quite like that. Anyway, Sci had a LONG protocol today. She has another […]
