Vote for Jen!

Omni Brain contributor gonesavage, a.k.a. Jen, seems modest so I'll post about it - she's in a $5000 blogging scholarship contest and your votes could help her win. Visit the list of finalists and click for Jennifer Wong before November 5.

There's another neuroblogger on the list, Shelly Batts of the popular Retrospectacle. Sure, Shelly is a well-qualified candidate, with persuasive stories in her blog to gain votes.

But Jen's the one to win! Very creative, smart, funny, and studious. Interdisciplinary. She's pictured here with a seashell; visit her Flickr photostream for awesome images including lots of photos from studies in her biology lab (one of examining beetles is described, "Males just lay there, like comatose.") Her other blog is Cyberspace Rendezvous.

As she puts it, "This would so rock, so please vote for me."

Hey, I'll take a picture with a seashell too if it'll get me votes! :D

Looks like that kossack's got it in the sack though. A shame.

Not to raise any potential voting-fraud issues, but how is it that (almost) everyone has more than 100% of the vote?

Anyway, post a few more pictures and maybe she can earn $5000 the old fashioned way? That is, by becoming a professional photographer. The pictures can be of Steve, and I'd be happy.
