The color of science...

Since I was holed up at work from 8AM until 7PM tonight, I didn't have much time to venture out and take a picture. However, at the end of the day, I pulled out my camera and snapped a few pictures of our science in an HIV vaccine laboratory. Above is an ice bucket with so-called "eppendorf" snap-cap tubes filled with very small quantities of RNA that we have purified from monkey T cells infected with the HIV cousin, SIV (Simian Immunodeficiency Virus).
