You might think that working in medical research, however important the task, involves a lot of long, laborious and even tedious work bent over a microscope and petri dishes.
Apparently not, at least for UW scientist Greg Crowther. Here’s Crowther’s rapping grant application seeking more funding to support the malaria research done in the UW laboratory run by Dr. Wes Van Voorhis. (I’m told this video was actually funded by the National Science Foundation, as part of an effort to popularize science).
This isn’t Crowther’s first stab at communicating science through music videos. Here’s one I especially like that he did about the structure of muscle fibers with help from his colleagues at Science Groove.
