Let me know if any of you learn anything useful from this, other than the fact that I'm cynical and sarcastic. That's no secret.

As the person who runs the digital electron microscopy facility at the school here, one of the things I have to do is train faculty, grad students, and industry clients on how to use some of the equipment. Some of themRead more... )

I am lost beyond "atoms," but it doesn't take much these days. I also haven't had a science class since 10th grade.

Check out these galleries then. Some of them are absolutely gorgeous.
