Some students just emailed me saying they loved my course. I am sure they are just being extra nice, but whatever heartfelt emotion was in their Emails made my day! Thanks to @iBioIllinois for allowing postdocs to teach courses. I hope I get such opportunities again in life :)

Et tu, Dawkins? You were my hero, my inspiration. When did you become so mean and unscientific? You know how genotypes and phenotypes work and you also know how much we're yet to find out! So why make such bad accusations without any proper proof/certainty?
