The xenopus boot camp with Jim Watson, discoverer of DNA structure, Nobel prize, chancellor and living statue of CSHL.
A year ago I was still at King's College London, a beautiful place on the Strand, right on the Thames... But I digress.

She died of cancer soon thereafter, largely discredited. Just to set the story straight...
