How scientists see the world

I've just found this comic and I think it's great so I want to share it with you all... World View (cartoon) by Abstruse Goose

When the budget is low: the "Flip a coin" experiment

In these difficult times this may be the research that we are left to do :-( ... I hope not

The greatest show on earth (Symphony of Science)

Symphony of Science is a very interesting project that brings scientific knowledge and philosophy to the public in a new way, combining science and music. John Boswell, the musician and producer behind Symphony of Science has made several videos about different topics in a very enjoyable musical way.

All of them are really good, but I want to share the last one: "The greatest show on earth". This video has been released last week and it's a video about the evolution. I'm sure you will enjoy it.

And before leaving you with the video, I want to add that John makes all his videos for free and all of us can enjoy them without any cost, so if you think they are good, you can help him with this project donating some money.

And now, here you have the last "Symphony of Science" video, "The greatest show on earth"

Science Box wishes you Merry Christmas

How people in science see each other

A bit of humour is always good. Recently in Twitter I discovered this picture with the views of the different people working in science about each other. It's great. I hope you like it as much as I do.

You can see the original picture done by Matus Sotak here.

PhD Comics movie!!!

If you are a researcher and have done your PhD in the last years or you are doing it now I'm pretty sure you have heard about Jorge Cham's website "PhD Comics". In there you can find the daily life of some PhD candidates in comic strips. Highly recommended by the way.

Now, Jorge goes a step further creating the movie. The comic characters come alive!!!! Here you can taste a bit of it in the trailer.... Enjoy
