Festival season is here—and apparently, mosquitoes got tickets too. If you have ever been the person in your friend group who ends a summer concert covered in large, itchy welts while everyone else goes home bite-free, you are not imagining things. Some people really are mosquito magnets. A new study, aptly titled “Blood, Sweat, and […] The post Do Mosquitoes Have a Taste for Beer? appeared first on Promega Connections.| Promega Connections

Ready to kick off your genetics unit? I prefer starting with DNA and then moving onto Punnett squares and inheritance patterns.

So, I think I may have discovered something interesting in biology! Professional scientists know this feeling all too well. Exhilarated that it looks like you might be the first person ever to know something, but worried sick that it might not be real. Also, you might be fooling yourself – and you are the easiest person to fool. And even if it is real, does it even mean something? Or did you effectively discover that hot things are not cold?| Bert Hubert's writings
And we’re back! As noted in part 1, there is the possibility I’ve discovered something interesting in biology.
