What's Your Day Job?

Felicia,
My future daughter in law is in the PhD program at Davis and trying to work with nano particles?? or something nebulous like that, possibly to deliver drugs to a part of the body. (Or something like that. Not really sure)

I'm glad my job sounds like Star Trek and the Big Bang Theory. Two very good shows, haha! Research thesis projects just never have a simple title.

Awesome! Drug delivery is a big part of the biomaterials field, so I know a lot of people doing research in that area. Nano is also a big topic right now, so I have a ton of friends at Berkeley working on lots of different applications for nano particles.

My youngest kid is interning at Berkeley on nanoscale micelles for drug delivery.

BioE, Materials Science double major.

polymer-based scaffolds for the delivery of stem cells to damaged tissues for tissue regeneration

I'm sorry I read this and I think I'm reading a Star Trek script involving the Borg

Just wait a few years. It will be a bigger email spam subject than Viagra.

Awesome! My major is Materials Science and Engineering but I work a lot with the Bioengineering department as well. I wonder if I know him/her. Is your kid an undergrad or a grad student?

Steven - undergrad helping out in Ting Xu's lab.

He loves Big Bang Theory. Me too, haha.

I've probably met him. I know a bunch of people in Ting's lab and their desk space is right next to ours. Small world!

And Big Bang Theory is a great show. My parents are pretty much convinced that that is my life, haha! Instead of collecting comic books, I just collect coral

 

[Mr. Ugly]

Yep, small world. I'm at College of Chemistry, actually.

I already get nano-spam. Kinda sad

You get spam on polymer scaffolded male enhancement treatment?

Heh, seems like we have a ton of smarty pants here on this forum.

 

[FeliciaLynn]

Yep, seems like people into the reef hobby tend to be smart (and maybe a bit nerdy ) people!

not smart enough to stay away from his hobby though!

It's not in the equation... it's by choice... no smarts involved!
