honours treat I: the food

this year's honours treat is something special. first because we have two photographers, one resident - outgoing, the other apprentice in waiting.
secondly because we are going for street food, and it comes from the honours students own parent's food stores.

fried chicken pieces 4 stars out of 5


curry fish head. 5.5 stars out of 5


deep fried calamari 5.6 stars out of 5


mutton and potato, 3.5 stars out of 5


mixed veg 3.5 stars out of 5

epmotion - music video from eppendorf



Pipetting all those well-plates, baby, sends your thumbs into overdrive
And spending long nights in the lab makes it hard for your love to thrive

What you need is automation, girl, something easy as 1 2 3
So put down that pipette, honey, I got something that will set you free

And it’s called epMotion (whisper: ‘cause you deserve something really great)
Girl you need epMotion (whisper: yeah girl it’s time to automate)
It’s got to be epMotion (whisper: no more pipetting late at night)
Only for you epMotion (whisper: girl this time we got it right)

DNA
RNA
Proteins
Cell Cultures
Less reagents
Faster workflow
Saves you money
Well, well, well

And it’s called epMotion (whisper: ‘cause you deserve something really great)
Girl you need epMotion (whisper: yeah girl it’s time to automate)
It’s got to be epMotion (whisper: no more pipetting late at night)
Only for you epMotion (whisper: girl this time we got it right)
