Arts and Crafts



This is what we call arts and crafts in our lab. It is hilariously fun, because it involves cutting massive amounts of paper towel with really dull scissors. Otherwise, if the paper towel is not cut to size, little elves will come into the lab and eat your DNA at night. Well, no, not really. But what you DO get is a shitty transferred gel, and all real molecular biologists know you’re only as good as the membrane you create during Southerns.

I study evolution using molecular biology techniques. I also hate cutting with dull scissors.
