    • About the Blog

      DiscoBlog is DISCOVER's compendium of quirky, funny, and surprising science news from the edge of the known universe. It's written by Andrew Moseman and Smriti Rao, and edited by Eliza Strickland. Email tips, suggestions, or complaints to estrickland [at] discovermagazine.com.

      Also, Discoblog recently incorporated the brilliant blog NCBI ROFL, in which two prone-to-distraction grad students post real scientific articles with funny subjects. Email your tips to ncbirofl [at] gmail.com. Follow the ROFL feed here.
