The Cooking Experiment


The Launch of #TheCookingExperiment!

 I love Science and I love to cook. Surprisingly, Science and Cooking go hand-in-hand. How?

Well, through The Cooking Experiment, I will be featuring some of my and other SciComm'ers favorite recipes and hosting dinner parties for Scientist and Non-Scientists to come together and converse. It is important to get these two groups of people into one room to start conversations. What better way to start conversation than by breaking bread together?

This quote, “Food is the ingredient that binds us together” describes exactly what I would like to achieve with The Cooking Experiment Series: To bring people together and let the conversations begin!

Welcome to my Dinner Table. Let's break bread together!
If you are interested in participating in The Cooking Experiment please let me know by filling out the Google Form! I am looking for Recipes from EVERYONE, Scientists in the DFW area to dine with and non-scientist friends in the DFW area to dine with!!

Operation Mouse

Part of working at such a great research institution is working with mice. While my first experience as I had mentioned earlier in the blog was sacrificing these animals, my experience now is much more exciting and productive towards the scientific community. I have learned to inject mice and collect mouse tissue for further studies.  Around Thanksgiving, someone asked me, "don't you feel bad 'torturing' the animals?" While at first I did not know how respond, but then I think about it and I realize that I had to go through so much training and clearances just to be able to set a foot in the animal facilities. Ever step of the way, humane acts are enforced while dealing with animals. Animal models are essential especially for research that is being translated into therapies for various diseases or for research that is used to better understand various diseases. The best thing I can say is, if not animals then would you prefer s...

Symmetry Biosciences

I went back to Symmetry to say my last goodbyes today since I didn't get a chance to last Tuesday. It was bitter sweet! I am excited for my next journey but will definitely miss the people I have worked with and come to call my friends.  Where should I begin about my experience at Symmetry Biosciences. It has been amazing! Day 1 was scary! The thought of doing a column purification, doing my own reactions or anything chemistry related made me nervous. The only word that seemed familiar to me was TLC (Thin Layer Chromatography). Of which I didn't even know the correct technique but just remembered a technique called TLC from Organic Lab in 2010. I had so much to learn and such little time to perfect it all. Everyone at Symmetry Biosciences has been so helpful and so patient. There have been plenty of times when the scientists were probably tired of my silly questions or couldn't believe I asked a certain question! The first couple of days were the hardest. After that, I ...

Your Everyday Scientist

When I run into people in social settings and the topic of my career or what I do comes up. Most people are surprised when I say “I am a scientist.” On occasion, I’ve also gotten the, “you don’t look like a scientist” comment… So, what does a scientist look like? Most often when you think of a scientist this is what comes to your mind… Do I have to be male, white, old, and unkept, lack a fashion sense to be a scientist? One of the projects I’ve been wanting to work on is making science more fashionable! Most people think that fashion and science don’t mix. Or that scientists cannot be fashionable. To break this stereotype, I’ve been wanting to work on a fashion/science post for a while. I was finally able to make some time for it and got some great volunteers to help me with this project. This was a fun project in which I am featuring my female program-mates who wear multiple hats for me: mentors and friends. Always there to give me advice on grad sch...
