Image via WikipediaNext week, I will get a chance to attend a really cool workshop on New communication channels for biology. I’d like to thank the organizers for the invitation. As a blogger, as someone intimately interested in audio/video communication and the use of the web as a communication medium for the sciences, I hope I can make some form of meaningful contribution.
Going to San Diego has its own charm. I lived there for almost six years, the longest I have ever stayed in any place for a continuous stretch. I haven’t gone back since I moved to the Seattle area, so hopefully I will get a chance to say hello to old friends and my brother-in-law.
I also get a chance to catch up with other members of the online science community (Jean-Claude, Moshe), and with some whom I am acquainted with virtually, but have never met (Hilary Spencer, Jason Kelly, Michael Nielsen).
