deface show

What disgrace!! You can't imagine how embarrassed i was on this seminar!!! Unexpected, in English, a very simple article was distorted to show for group members. I gave a so bad journal introduction on group's journal club; i made a so impressive show for all group members! Sigh... :(
What suggestions i got from my boss and classmates is that i should firstly confer key point of every slides to audience in no more than two sentences. It is not good to try to explain each detailed background information supposing they have known.It is better to speak oral English but formal English.
Yes, there is a going, "Write to be understood, speak to be heard, read to grow."--Lawrence Clark Powell Wish i would a good representation next time.

host a visiting scientist from CSHL

Invited by my boss, a well known scientist from America Cold Spring Harbour Laboratory, Michael Q. Zhang(http://rulai.cshl.edu/ ) visited our lab this afternoon. He gave a speech in Chinese on "Computational dissection of mammalian genome regulation sub networks" and would stay in NJ for several days. What i got from his address remains some key words: promoter- transcription -correlation-dynamic regulation and protein-protein interaction……
