Intuition

I enjoyed the novel, Intuition by Allegra Goodman, thoroughly who had done an excellent job of writing a story I identify presently since I am working in a wet laboratory.

The story revolved around on the need to balance between rushing to publish preliminary findings to gain a head start and confirming the findings are accurate. It also depicted the lives of overworked post-doc fellows "slaving" in the lab in wee hours of the night.

The reason why I have not been blogging is that I am busy with my experiments now. One ELISpot experiment usually takes three days. If I am not doing it, I am performing other experiments (such as ELISA, cloning etc.) or preparing for the next ELISpot experiment.
