Science Buzz Lunch in Bldg 2, Room 107, 10-15-2012
Topics discussed:
1) A study of Gouldian Finches showing that covering a male's right eye cancels the male's usual courtship behavior of choosing a mate with the same cap color (these finches can have a black, red , or yellow cap), but covering his left eye has no such effect.
2) The work on G protein coupled receptors by biochemists Robert Lefkowitz and Brian Koblka that was awarded the 2012 Nobel prize for Chemistry.
3) The strange story of the false reports by Hisashi Moriguchi claiming that he had already performed medical use of cells derived iPS cells
