the first nerd nite of the summer is this friday!

our speakers are:

10 PM Suzy Renn - Harvard - Comparative functional genomics of sex-role behavior

10:45-ish Jessica Girard - Harvard - Prairie dogs and plague: as dangerous a combination as running with scissors or a sharp stick

11:30ish - Caitlin Anderson- Harvard - Probably a general impressionistic comparison of 18th and 19th-century British society... heavy on 18th-cen sex, gin, and gambling, contrasted to Victorian moralism and sexual neuroses...
