Btw, for the record...I apparently have a real issue reading about how rats and monkeys are induced to have cardiac problems so that we can test these new radiopharmaceuticals (nuc med imaging agents). Yuck! I HATE the research aspect of it...I always have :(

Well, I found the nuc med journal article I wanted super bad to focus my term paper on and presented my idea to the director. Rejected! Apparently it is "too technical". Damn.

TIme to get going. Yay!! Out to the Mercury with crunchpod and sinfonie. Can't wait.....so---o need to get out a bit :)

but exciting to me! I just found out that the hospital I work for has the reference material I need for the 2 research papers due next month in their medical library. I need only to wear my badge!! If I want to come during evening or weekend hours when they aren't normally open, I need only to page the security officer on duty and they will let ( Read more... )
