Defining moments of grad school (Part 4)

[nilaroda]

• April 26, 2007: Back in 2002, a collaborator of ours showed some data with some IL-1R knockout mice.  In 2004, I enter grad school, pick up a project in which half of the hypothesis hinges on that data.  In 2005, I want to reproduce that data.  I order mice from Jackson, spend time breeding them, and spend time breeding them to some other knockouts
