Summer Interns 2014 : 02-August-2012 This page last changed on Jun 01, 2014 by kgomes. I'm starting my confluence post early because I will most definitely forget it this week... It's very frustrating when biology does things you don't expect it to, or when you finally figure out that the method you've been planning on using isn't the best way to answer your question(s). I have been working with a new culture in which the females have all suddenly become gravid and the singles floating around are all males, which is a problem since so far, I have used a more-or-less consistent ratio of males:females without eggs for my work. It might not matter now since I'm also changing my approach to better address the question of how non-target genetic material changes what signal I am getting from my copepods in culture. I sort of wish I had talked to more people at the beginning of my project, but at least things are making a little more sense now. Have to also figure out if something funny is happening with the prongs I am using in lab. Consistency has been decreasing, which is not good. More later.
