A Cell is Like a City

Cell Biology

Student:  Are you speaking today, and what is your talk about?
Dr. Bearss: Yes.  It's about how we take discoveries in the lab, and apply them for clinical use.  If you want to hear that lecture, I can give that instead.  It's a lot more interesting than actin.

Later:  

Yep.  This is cell biology not civil engineering.  No one wants to learn about roads.  ;)

I literally laughed out loud when I saw this.
