Biomusings About Header.jpg

Modern science evolved from natural philosophy through the over-specialization of scientists. Biologists have not escaped this trend, and with every new technology, ‘model organism’, or scientific clique, a new type of biologist is born. Biomusings is a small effort to bring back biology from its pieces, with the hope that every biologist can find something interesting to read or say.

Biomusings is run by a *very* small team of graduate students at the Georgia Institute of Technology:
