Work Update: I have been cloning and doing cell culture--nothing much has changed. This post is for all you molecular biology nerds. I have been PCRing, Mini-prepping and picking colonies like mad. I'm doing 4-5 constructs. However, when we pick colonies here, we pick 10-15, which means a lot of tube labeling, lysis, neutralization, and centrifuging. As a joke, I asked my "supervisor" which colonies I should pick and he said to pick the "right ones." Hahaha, harsh harsh, but I did pick one right one so far! Four more constructs to go.
Also, yesterday, we had a seminar about MRI and its applications and benefits as a diagnostic tool but also as a tool of other sorts. For example, MRI can also be used on a probe for oil drilling because with this type of imaging, one can detect the difference between fat (oil, the stuff that's spilling all over the oceans recently :( ) and water.
