So I'm still here. I've just been busy! There's been a grant to write, classes to teach, lines of undergrads wanting to talk to me, papers to revise, turnover in the lab, equipment breaking and getting fixed, all stuff that takes my attention away from here. Finally this weekend we were able to get away for a bit, then come back and relax, watch the Superbowl and dismantle my espresso machine. Obviously the lack of decent espressos has been making me work slower. But now that the semester is in the groove, hopefully I can get back with new and exciting posts.
I am a neuroscientist doing research and teaching in a US university. For some insight about what this blog is about check out
Dismantle the espresso machine?!?!?!? Have you gone mad?
That was the only way to get it back in working order. Now there's no way back but forward (am still waiting for a replacement part to arrive).
As long as there's a rational explanation.
