Arrived at SfN in Washington, DC news | email to someone | printer friendly
Just got to the convention center and it's already teeming with people! They expect around 32,000 attendees and you could definitely see plenty of people with poster-rolls at the airport. The Wi-Fi connection here so far is decent, we'll see how it holds up once 32,000 people are checking their email at the same time - we all know scientists use the internet only for email, and not for blogging, twittering or friendfeeding
I have quite a stuffed itinerary this year so I better get going. Unfortunately, I have not found a way to make the itinarary public, which would have been a nice feature: being able to see which posters and sessions your friends have flagged as important.
Just a suggestion for the future "facebook for scientists"...

Will meet with a playwright later today who is writing a play with an epigeneticist as a central character. This will be interesting.

I find it so difficult to revise manuscripts where the reviewers have only misunderstood things - how to not make reviewers feel stupid?

Finally: If you see this in FF and click on it, it should take you to this tweet only. Does that work for you?
