Welcome to Cytophilia

Cytophilia translates to 'lover of cells' or 'one having a high affinity for cells' as a PhD student in cellular neuroscience this serves my life well.  Please check back soon for reviews of recent science news, book reviews and summaries of current important literature in cell biology, neuroscience and my other favorite fileds! With this blog I hope to contribute to the body of scientists trying to make our work approachable and exciting for everyone.  If you have ever wondered how research gets done, what makes for a solid study and what the implications of new research might be, I'm going to try to provide some answers for you!
