Hello Boston Nerds and Nerd-adjacent individuals,
The next Nerdnite is coming up next Monday, March 29 at the Middlesex. We’ll get things started at 8pm. As usual we’ll feature two nerdy speakers and nerd-appropriate tunes from DJ Claude Money.

The Talks:

Phoebe Cohen — “Mass Extinction Will Get You Every Time: A Brief History of Life’s Worst Moments”
Phoebe  is finishing up her PhD in paleontology at Harvard University. Really, she should be writing her thesis instead of giving a Nerd Nite talk, but couldn’t pass up the opportunity. While her research is on the early evolution of life (think – fossilized amoeba) she’s generally fascinated with the perpetual destruction and renewal of life on Earth. After defending, Phoebe will be moving on down Mass Ave to do education and public outreach for a NASA Astrobiology grant program at MIT.

Rebekah Rogers — “Adaptive impacts of a chimeric gene in Drosophila melanogaster.”
Rebekah’s talk will feature bio/genetic nerdiness from a molecular evolutionary biologist.

The talks:
1. Cross-Cultural Revolution: Contemporary Chinese Music in Exile
by Danny Liss

After graduating from Amherst College with a degree in Music Theory and Medieval Literature, Danny Liss moved to China for a year in order to escape the constant harassment of recruiters offering him lucrative employment. In between teaching lessons about the difference between “like” as a verb and “like” as a modifier, he explored some of the country’s many contradictions. He currently lives in Cambridge, where he works in non-profit administration.

Talk 2: The Neurobiology of Zombies — Updated for 2010
by Jeremy Kay

You might think of zombies as lowly B-movie material, but scientists have discovered many instances of zombie-like behavior in nature. Updating my talk that I gave several years ago, I’ll give some creepy examples. Jeremy is a postdoctoral fellow in neurobiology at Harvard — and the organizer of Nerdnite. He loves referring to himself in the third person. His professional work concerns vision… his fascination with zombies is purely recreational. Really. Like, your brains will totally not get eaten if you show up. We promise.
