The blog posts recently haven't been focused too much on science research recently for two reasons.
First, I'm deep in the throws of multiple grants, as well as helping to build a bioinformatics pipeline for a whole mess of microbiome data, so, at the end of the day*, I'm often just not up for blogging about science. On top of that, I'm giving a talk at the American Society for Microbiology meeting this week, so I have to prepare for that. On the other hand, I will be having dinner with ScienceBloglings Tara and Revere, so that should be pretty fun. Thanks to the ScienceBlogerator 9600, however, I will still be posting stuff.
*I realize the phrase 'at the end of the day' has been transformed into some kind of dramatic pentultimate statement, but I really do mean that at the end of day, as in, when I get home, I'm tired of thinking about science (or I have to think about work related science, etc...).
Have a fun time in Boston!
(alas, since I'm no longer a Branch president, I have to stay in SF and mind the UNIX cluster)
May the TSA not steal your ASM schwag!
