Yes, I am alive, and I think that this is longest period I've gone without updating my blog, so appolgies. I don't even have a nice picture to make up for it, but I will soon. I am fine, but the last month at Edinburgh has been hectic. It didn't help that I wasn't here for some of it, The Young Bioinformaticians Forum was held in oxford in October which was a great event for meeting others doing the same as me, thanks James for pointing this out, and it was free too. Next came Microsoft student partner meeting in Reading, but no free Tablet this year, which was a shame., but a nice bunch of people there too. Last week I was in Newcastle for the European Congress of Biogerontology (the study of ageing), which is the field that I would like to go into. It was fantastic, I feel like I know 100x more than I knew before I went, it was good to have so many experts around to ask questions to. A few options for PhD's appeared as well and I will take a trip to Brown University in February next year to look at Marc Tatar's lab over there. Marc is doing some very interesting work on ageing in insects and mamals. I will be combining the trip there with a Model United Nations meeting at Harvard University, as a team of us from Edinburgh are entering. It's 1.43 am, so I hope you feel a little updated and excuse me for going to bed now. goodnight.
