The next leg of the adventure

[rebeccmeister]

So, life in Postdoc-Limbo is going to continue for another year and a half, at least. I just got my official offer letter from UC Berkeley, so I can make the announcement more public. I'm extremely excited to be working with a top-notch evolutionary physiologist there, on a project that will continue from the work I've been doing with these wing-dimorphic crickets. It looks like I'll be moving out there in October.

The thing is, to some extent, California is wasted on me. I'm a Pacific Northwest girl. At least it's not permanent. I am also coming to grips with what it's like to live as a postdoc. I'm still learning new things, which is great, even if the life-in-limbo aspect absolutely SUCKS.

But I should give you something science-themed to ogle, in addition to this announcement.

Here's a snapshot of what I've been working on, recently:


I've written out a more detailed description of the current research within this photo album - click through to see that and several other photos.

Edit: This photo sends you to my photostream, not the album, arg. The album is here, with my most recent work featured towards the very end.

My sister has been living in El Cerrito for the last couple of years, so one of my early plans is to impose on her hospitality for a while.

I have this feeling that distractions abound there, but I also have this feeling that I am going to need to retain the focus and work ethic I've been working on developing while here in Lincoln...so, it's going to be an interesting time.

I think I should have time to talk this weekend, if you're free...'twould be good indeed to catch up on a number of different fronts.

Yep, I am totally around. We'll be at Passover Seder Saturday night from 4pm (eastern time) onward but I'm around the rest of the weekend.

Let's connect!
