A blogger I follow has pointed to the American Society for Cell Biology‘s lecture series on cutting edge science called the iBioSeminars.
This is meaty stuff and it reminds me of the terrific work that federal grants do for our world. These are full lectures in multiple parts with each part being about 45 minutes long.
I chose my first lecture from a researcher at UCSF (because I know people there). Cynthia Kenyon’s lecture on Genes and Cells that Determine the Lifespan of C. elegans (in two parts) is a great reminder that animal studies is more than a checkbox on the Other Project Information form.
For those of you who are more portable, you can even download the lectures in a variety of formats for the iPod, and other devices.
Its why we do what we do. Enjoy!
