science can be colorful too

vials of different colors of liquids
I always used to laugh at the promotional brochures for the University of Chicago; the "scientists" pictured were usually friends of mine who were getting paid to pipette water with food coloring for a photo shoot. It's so rare that you actually get to work with brightly colored liquids, especially in biology. Now I have to eat crow - the picture above shows some brightly colored suspensions that I'll be using in my work. Fluorescent microspheres. Damn.

  1. Cool! Did you pixelate so we can't see exactly what you are using or is that just poor screen resolution?

    :o)

  2. I blurred it so as to maintain some secrecy over what we're doing at the startup I work for. Not that the information I blurred out is particularly indicative of our project, but I guess I'm probably better off playing it safe.
