http://www.madprime.org/articles/2010/04/21/thesis-defense en-us 40 <p>I defended last Thursday. People claim I gave a good talk. My sister (who is pretty nonscientific) claims she understood large segments of it!</p> <p><a href="http://blog.printf.net">Chris</a> recorded the talk with audio and video. It was hard to read the slides on the original video, so he's created a video using the audio only and pics of the slides themselves.</p> <div align=center> <object width="500" height="375"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="movie" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=11095747&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=&amp;fullscreen=1" /><embed src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=11095747&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=&amp;fullscreen=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="500" height="375"></embed></object><p><a href="http://vimeo.com/11095747">Madeleine Ball's thesis defense</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user3639326">Madeleine Ball</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p> </div> <p>I should watch it myself, but dislike the sound of my own voice... I think I sound like a chipmunk. Honestly, in my head my voice is much deeper than that.</p> <p>Anyway, if you take the time to watch, I hope you enjoy it! The subjects are epigenetics, DNA methylation, and a little on clinical analysis of whole genomes (related to the Personal Genome Project).</p> Wed, 21 Apr 2010 11:30:00 -0400 urn:uuid:b9a87f34-5a11-476e-9837-f1b3391b9ed1 Madeleine Ball http://www.madprime.org/articles/2010/04/21/thesis-defense PGP methylation genome genetics epigenetics
