That's PROFESSOR Reed to you, baby
Well, it had to happen sometime. Yet another one of our own, veteran TO-poster, long-time PT contributor, hacker, and guru Reed Cartwright, has taken the academic plunge and accepted a tenure-track appointment.
(As if it wasn't enough being the current Huxley Faculty Fellow at Rice University!)
Reed starts this coming January 2012 as an Assistant Professor with the Biodesign Institute (does that have the D-word in it?) at Arizona State University.
He will be sharing his lab space with Prof. Steve Steve, of course.
Word also has it that, as all good geneticists should, Reed has successfully replicated himself (albeit quite imperfectly, only 50% genetic identity by descent).
As you can plainly see above, these life-changing events have had quite an effect on the poor Reed.
Congratulations Prof Cartwright!

Does anyone else think Reed looks uncannily like a zombie panda?

This look would make for interesting freshmen exam proctoring.

Congratulations. Aaaah, science moving purposefully onward; merit being rewarded, and what have you. However,'BioDESIGN Institute'? Couldn't they change their name to the, 'Biowhatlooks likesomeonedesigneditbutitsreallyRM&NSatwork Institute'.

My sincere congratulations! Hope you are happy in your new position.

Congratulations on both the job and the genetic replication.
I hope you replicated yourself as an adult, but I suspect you may have taken the easy way out and generated a replicant that is not only a mere 50% match, but also at the neonatal development stage, requiring years of maturation. But they are cute when they're young.

Is Arizona close enough to Colorado for
DrProf Cartwright to drop in and give Atheistoclast's talk for him?Henry J · 3 November 2011

Imagine what Reed would look like if he was wearing a costume.

Was he designed that way? :p
