My vision for this blog (for 2011) is to focus my writing on subjects that allow me to share my learning experiences to help others. I've been around the science world, done a lot of different jobs, and studied a wide variety of subjects. My research has encompassed the areas of cancer genetics, oncogenes, cannabinoids, protein expression and purification, microbiology, and environmental science. I'm from the east coast but have lived in the south, midwest, and west coast. After a second postdoc, I moved to industry and worked in sales and marketing before following my heart and landing my dream job in research and development. My goal is to help anyone who has questions about their career or their science. You can send me questions (through this site or twitter @jadebio) and I will answer you in an article or privately if you prefer. Also, I'll write about non-science subjects too. There really is more to life than work. As Richard Bach said, "you teach best what you most need to learn." Welcome and feel free to contact me anytime.

Comment by RJ in Should I get a PhD?

I find it difficult to gauge what would be a realistic view of being a doctoral student. It seems to me that the snarky jokes about it being a living hell are usually hyperbole, and/or overly simpl. . .Read More

This week I've chosen one of my own personal favorite woman singers to feature for Fabulous Female Friday. I love the combination of a unique voice with a singer who can bring out the intention or emotion behind a song. To me, that's art. And that's how Dana Fuchs makes me feel when I watch and listen to her sing.

You may remember Dana in the role of Sadie in the film Across the Universe. She sang several tracks for the soundtrack of that film. Dana has two albums of her own music available on CD and just released her new album, Love to Beg, in Europe, Feb. 3rd, where she is currently on tour. The new album will be released in the US on April 12th.

For today, here are two of my favorite live performances by Dana. The first is her singing "Helter Skelter", which she sang for the Across the Universe album.  Here she sings it live at the B.B. King Club in New York City.

The second song is a soulful acoustic performance of her tune "Holding onto Misery". I especially love watching this performance because she expresses the emotion so deeply when she sings it.

I hope you enjoy these tunes and check out more of Dana's work. Have a wonderful Friday and weekend all!
