Hello my fellow MARC peoples,
This October 9th through 12th I assisted the SACNAS conference. It was a marvelous experience. I learned a lot about the research going on in the poles. During the poster session, I met a student from Puerto Rico that also performed brood sizes for C. elegans. We conversed about the protocol that we followed for the experiment. I was very happy to give her some suggestions.
At the exhibitor session at the conference I had the opportunity to talk to direct representatives of some summer programs that I am interested in applying to for summer 2009.
I was very happy to see the greatness of the conference and the so much interested in science.
But must importantly I got to bond with the other MARC kids!!!
On the Last day, right before coming back to LA, the UCLA student I roomed with and I got a quick tour of Park City and got to see snow for the first time!!
Happy fall 08!!
peace.
