SciAntics

Sciantics? Really? Sorry folks, couldn't think of a better name! Anyways, this blog is dedicated to science news, articles, and just plain information that needs to be shared for the sake of science, education, and learning! I don't want to divulge into too much about my personal life on this blog, so i'll just say that I'm a biology/ chemistry major. You'll most likely see posts along these lines along with the ocasional physics and astronomy posts.

Disclaimer: This blog, and I have no connection to most of these outside articles, and pictures. All articles, and pictures are sourced accordingly, and if you see a post something sourced to you and wish for it to be removed, please notify me, and it will be removed promptly.

On behalf of it being Halloween, this podcast should provide some interesting insights! Especially to those of you who have an insatiable sweet tooth!
