A Bug's Death

Olivia Judson, evolutionary biologist at the university of Oxford and author of the wonderful Dr Tatiana Sex Advice to All Creation book, proposes to infect the malaria-carying mosquitoes with a killer gene, to estinguish the species within twenty generations or so.

After one night spent listening to two mosquitoes flying round my ears, I'm with Dr Tatiana. Who's with us?

Truth be told, I'm on holiday from the blog 'cause I don't have much time to devote to it.

Too much stuff to do at work, and with only five days left before the Viva I really am starting to get skittish about it.

So, it's goodbye for the moment, and see you soon, after the exams and the well earned holidays.

I'll try to split the blog in two or three branches, one where I'll post about (my) science, the others i don't know yet.

If I blog, I want it to be not just a diary but somehow useful to people out there.
