From Gonzolabs . . .
The winners have been announced in the recent competition from the American Association for the Advancement of Science— the “Dance Your Ph.D.” Competition, in which doctoral dissertations are illuminated by dance routines.
There’s stiff competition here, but I have to say that my favorite was one of the runners-up, “Individual Differences in Exploratory Behavior of Prairie Voles, Microtus ochrogaster.”
Though “The role of vitamin D in beta cell function” came in close second.
For some reason the Gonzolabs page doesn’t provide audio, so for the complete experience click on the link “for an explanation of this dance,” which will not only give you the artist’s intent, but will direct you to the YouTube page where you’ll be able to hear the audio.
