Goodbye GIS :(
yup this attachment is ending soon (actually tmr's the last day) and i am starting to miss my monotonous, mundane, routine lab work XP well, it is a meaningful and enriching experience to be at GIS doing stuff, mingling with ex-Harvards, Cambridges etc. haha. lol todae my mentor juz asked me why am i still coming coz i alr finished all my work. i laughed.
i tink i will miss that lab coat that looks like an apron, along with the pipette and EXTREMELY sterile tissue culture room. haha and of course the radio above my seat in the lab ;) juz to share a bit of my work, here are some pics i took of my MEFs becoming iPSCs.
see the diff? the pic above shows the iPSC colony with its refractive look and well-defined borders whereas the pic below shows the original MEFs juz 2 days after retroviral infection of Sox2, Oct4 and Klf4.

heehee i lurve my cells coz i am a great father :)
(p.s. i m utterly shocked as this post is nt emo at all. HAHA.)
huff, huff @ 11:17 AM
