The Inoculated Mind's Interests
|
| General | Science, journalism, honeybees, science fiction, philosophy, politics, radio, film, and education. | | Music | Classical, large collection of science fiction soundtracks, and a hodge-podge of other worthy tracks that would make categorizing them tedious. | | Movies | GATTACA, Lord of the Rings, Matrix 1 (not 2 or 3), multiple thought-provoking films, and various alpha-mode (read: dumb) movies. | | Television | I don't watch television, it's an obsolete box that won't shut up! I do catch online clips of The Daily Show, Colbert Report, and some TV news personalities. I'm also addicted to House, M.D. and the new Battlestar Galactica, which I catch on DVD. | | Books | The Ancestor's Tale, The Omnivore's Dilemma, The Republican
War on Science, Mendel in the Kitchen, Breaking the Spell, anything by Richard Dawkins. David Brin and Kim Stanley Robinson are my favorite fiction writers. I need to read more SciFi. | | Heroes | Einstein, Francis Crick, Rosalind Franklin, Carl Sagan, Richard Dawkins. |

The Inoculated Mind's Blurbs |
About me:
I'm a scientist/science journalist in Madison, WI, studying plant genetics and journalism in graduate school. I used to write a science column in UC Davis' California Aggie newspaper for three years, and for over two years I've been hosting a science radio talk show on KDRT 101.5 fm (http://www.kdrt.org) on a volunteer basis. This is also available as a podcast in iTunes. Look in the Science -> Natural Science categories. I recently started the podcast here in Madison, while a local radio station is considering adding it to it's lineup.

Who I'd like to meet:
Daniel Dennett, E.O. Wilson. These are some of the bigger names on my current list. However, if you are a scientist or other public intellectual who is deeply interested in the sciences, chances are, I'd like to meet you.
