Last chance, people! The gates will close on the one, the only Grad Student Eating in Style Carnival on Saturday, October 30th! So send me your recipes, your price breakdowns, and let’s show them all that there’s more to grad life than Ramen (though Ramen will, of course, get it’s own category). Send in your […]
Welcome to my post on the Women’s Health Writeup! I at first didn’t see much I could do in this article on cheating (is fidelity obsolete?), but the more I read, the more I saw to write. Sci isn’t an ethicist or sociologist and thus cannot really comment on the question of cheating in those […]
Say THAT five times fast. So the other day, Sci was on the elliptical, doing some cross training. Nothing major. I usually get bored on ellipticals, and thus I go to magazines. I wish I could read heavy novels and improve my mind with something like the History of the Decline and Fall of the […]
The things that Sci thinks of when she hasn’t had enough coffee… So here it is. Sci often trades recipes with people. Cheap, easy ones mostly, the cheaper the better. She has posted some of her own on this blog. And then one morning I thought, wouldn’t it be GREAT if hungry grad students could […]

First Neurotopia was picked for the top 30 Science blogs by the Times Online!!! Sci is very flattered and pleased for our mention: Punchy and irreverent views on research and medical education from US postgrads/postdocs in neuroscience and physiology — and has Friday Weird Science specials on the science of sex. W00t. Also, big congratulations […]
It actually came out yesterday, but Sci was crazy busy doing awesome sciency things. I would say I looked a lot like this: (From Girl Genius, which is completely awesome, and which I’ve probably mentioned before. My life is TOTALLY one of adventure, romance, and MAD SCIENCE! You like yourself some awesome steampunk, start reading. […]
Check it out at Ionian Enchantment. Some great stuff this issue, including a great deal on ADHD from Sharp Brains. And a cool post from Mindhacks on Mummy brain scans!!!
Is up! And we’re in it. Two posts on Opponent-Process theory! I highly recommend this edition, there’s an entire section on addiction, including an article on the addictive potential of marijuana, and another on the myth of dopamine and pleasure (ain’t pleasure, it’s…salience…sort of…of value-related stimuli). Also, check out Juniorprof today, great post up on […]
