Welcome to my Science Blog

I’ve started this blog to offer commentary and evaluation on current science news headlines. I hope to offer a (new) scientist’s perspective on some of the science and health issues that reoccur in the popular media, furthering understanding of what science really is and how it works. The process of writing this blog will hopefully sharpen my writing skills as well as help me to develop and better communicate my thoughts to a non-scientist audience. Because I am a biologist, I will be sticking to issues related to biology, ecology and human health.

BUT ... as I am in the middle of writing my thesis, most of my posts with likely deal with this birthing process as I find my way from graduate school to the workplace. So this is likely to be a hodgepodge of personal journey and intellectual interest. Just don't hold your breath for a lot of the latter.
