So this blog, along with a large cohort of others, has signed up for the first ever Week of Science Challenge (TM). What is said challenge? Simple: We have to post about science, and naught else. So, this week I'll try to stay on-topic and explore a bit into my areas of study (neuroscience, hearing impairment) and leave the fun/weird/parrot-related stuff out.
Any suggestions of stuff people want to see?
Go Colts!

During my winter blogging break, I thought I'd repost of few of my "greatest hits" from my old blog, just so you all wouldn't miss me so much. This one is from September 24, 2007. This post follows up on my initial 2007 post which I reposted yesterday.

Eugene Wallingford had a post last week about blogging, and popular misconceptions:
When I first started writing this blog, several colleagues rolled their eyes. Another blog no one will read; another blogger wasting his time.
They probably equated all blogging with the confessional, "what I ate…
Yeah....just won $100 from my friends on the game.
How about an update on your research results in the regrowth of hair cells in the cochlea?
Hmmm, I got a bit of a talking-to (by my mentor) the last time I talked about un-published research. So, I'm not sure if I can do that. However, I *can* and will happily talk about the stuff thats either published on the the definitive pipeline!
i want to know why my children can't hear a word i'm saying even if i hold their heads still with their eyes facing me (as much as i can since their eyes seem to roll back into their heads at that point), but if i whisper something to my husband two rooms away they hear me perfectly. it must be some sort of hair cell defect, right?
So, does "Go Colts" mean you failed the challenge?
Hey, the week of Science hadn't started at that point (posted this pre-superbowl).
