I don't have time for a full post today but I would be remiss not to bring attention to Google's amazingly awesome doodle for the day.



Nettie Stevens did some of the early landmark research in chromosome biology.  I highly recommend reading the recent article on the GSA blog by Cristy Gelling.  Cristy does a good job of describing Dr. Stevens importance.  For those of you interested in how we built our understanding of the chromosomal theory of inheritance and the role of chromosomes in sex determination Stevens 1905 book is still a good read.

cheers
