What makes those who have won the Nobel prizes different is that they have seen a vision and pursued it to the end. With a lot of hard work and dedication they have made the difference.

I've been doing a research on alternative fuel/biofuel during my spare time. I have a chemical reaction involving waste vegetable oil. I am sure the resulting gas from the reaction is flammable. But I don't know what kind of gas it is. Can you help me find a chemist or a chemical lab for complete analysis. Thanks. Hi,

Good open source projects gives a lot of credit to any country in my opinion. Rather than writing blogs, what about writing small open source code projects?

I will definitely read your entry especially if it is about DOST. DOST is the S&T arm of the government. So I would like to know what it does for S&T (its action or inaction). Cheers! Hi Pomona,

]]> Comment on Poster or Oral? by Madraida http://blog.bahaykuboresearch.net/2007/09/08/poster-or-oral/#comment-144 Madraida Fri, 14 Mar 2008 06:07:04 +0000 http://blog.bahaykuboresearch.net/2007/09/08/poster-or-oral/#comment-144 I like poster presentations. One, because I like making posters. It's one of the few occasions in research when I can be creative/artistic. Two, I like being able to talk about my research for at least an hour. And that's not including the time needed for people to read my poster. In an oral presentation, 15 minutes is all I have to yak about my research. Then there's a Q&A portion that's about 5-10 min long. That's a really crappy deal. When I've spent so many years on a research, I want to be able to talk more about it. It's a pity though that poster presentations seem to have a "2nd class citizen" status in conferences - going by people's conventional perception. However, judging by the fact that best poster and oral presentations are awarded the same amount, they officially are supposed to be equal. Maybe someday, posters will earn their rightful place in conferences. I like poster presentations. One, because I like making posters.
