I’m so bummed that building was just being finished when I graduated. Always wanted to go inside.

As an undergrad in micro lab class, I aspirated bacteria into a micropipette. We were taught to flame sterilize things that touched bacteria, so my child brain thought “why not flame sterilize the micropipette?”. And that’s how I melted a micropipette and learned to ask before I do.

Hi Erik. Could you please add me to the Science feed? I’m a postdoc at Princeton with Bonnie Bassler.
