Weird! I've got a track called apoptosis.. cos I let my ex name it for me!
My girlfriend's field of research is NAIP, or Neural Apoptosis Inhibitor Protein (I think that's what it stands for). Basically, her research involves trying to find ways to identify, regulate, and prevent conditions caused by unexpected and 'unnatural' (I can't think of a better word right now) cell death.
It's fascinating when you start to figure out what she's talking about. I can understand just barely enough to sort of keep up. It's like when you're learning a second language and you're at the point where you're beginning to have conversations in that language-- you know enough to sort of get by and fake your way through it, but you don't really grasp 100% of what's going on. The more she tells me, of course, the more I understand. That's a cool thing.

my ex is currently working on a phd in neuro-immunology.. she used to try to explain it, but my brain would just wander off somewhere else after about half a sentenceLunch Money wrote: My girlfriend's field of research is NAIP, or Neural Apoptosis Inhibitor Protein (I think that's what it stands for).

pHz-- a major difference between us would be that you make a good mod and I wouldn't. <laff>
It IS cool learning stuff from her, though, even if it's not something I'm likely to ever 'need' to know. You never know who you'll end up having a casual conversation with, and it could prove handy for passing the time pleasantly with a scientist-type. <chuckle>
platinumears-- Or, you left your underwear lying all over the place. That's the only other reason possible.
