What is it like to work in a lab? What's the latest science news?…
Being a deep-sea biologist is not all riding around in a wetsuit in a zodiac chasing down giant squid at 30 knots. Sometimes I have to pipette giant squid samples for DNA analysis. All that pipetting can give me a vicious thumb cramp. Wouldn't it be nice if someone could do it for me! Better…

These are cool but where are the science t-shirts for us grrls? And what's with the multiplying women one in the upper RH corner?
You can also design your own shirt on the site, if you so wish! That could help with the female-friendly fare.
I would suggest checking out the xkcd.com shirts, for more fare:

All great shirts, but other then the giant isopod, we have nothing in an oceanographic vein here at Deep Sea News . . . .
Except that we are scientists first, deep-sea biologists second.
Kevin, that brings up an interesting point (perhaps one for su to blog on) - why separate the speciality from the discipline? Aren't all deep sea biologists (by their nature) scientists?
