Almost famous...


Well, I made it big. I'm on the Qiagen website!  Sure, they're a molecular assay and diagnostics company that only scientists have heard of, but the website mentions me and my research team at Rockhurst!  Here's the pic that was emailed out (I only learned of it through at colleague in Wisconsin) and a link to the rest of the story: http://www.qiagen.com/qdm/amp/rattlesnakes/euna/?WT.dcsvid=lubinski%40bu.edu

Family time

I have been fortunate enough to have spent the last two weeks with my family, and doing so involved meeting them in both Wichita and Milwaukee.  It was totally worth all the driving to see my parents and my brother and his family (all from Texas), as well as lots of extended family in both cities (e.g. all of us in Milwaukee, below).  My nieces are so beautiful and smart, and they're getting so big!  Everyone just got back to their respective homes in Texas today, and I miss them already.
