At ScienceOnline 2010, Deepak and Dr. Kiki moderated a session on Podcasting in Science. Video from the session is embedded below
ScienceOnline 2010: Podcasting in Science
January 29th, 2010Back with a new format : episode 29
November 29th, 2009After an almost two month hiatus prompted partly by a crashing unsaved Audacity session and a lost hard disk, we get back to podcasting with a new format. This format we hope will add some biology back into our mix while we retain most of our usual geekery .
Beginning with episode 29 we will have three sections: The first section we have titled Science, here we will talk about published and reported scientific developments. In the second section called Community spotlight, we will talk about interesting discussions on the Friendfeed life-scientists room and other Life-science blogs. Finally we have our section on things programming and the usual geeky “stuff”.
So Accordingly…we start episode 29 with some excuses that may explain our absence , then go on to introducing the new format . In the Science section we talk about how far the Mamalian Gene Consortium got and then chat about the aftermath of gene mapping companies like deCode, that finally closed their doors. As our community spotlight , we chose the interesting discussion about the many science based social networking sites that seem to have gone all quiet. Finally , we talk about the launch of chempedia and how the stack exchange ( or stackoverflow) model may be a needed twist to improve scientific communication.
Keith Robinson writes at the Omics Omics Blog about “his most expensive paper” ever

Prompted by Cameron Neylon the Friendfeed life scientists room weighs in on some of the social networking sites they use
Rich Apodaca on bringing the stack exchange engine to Chemists and Chemistry .
Chempedia is awesome: Check it out!

Episode 28: c2c-programming? – Hadoop , Django , Scala, Tornado : A programming heavy session
October 18th, 2009Atom starts off by filing his Hadoop world report and then we launch into a discussion of Django, Tornado and how functional programming is probably the messiah that will lead us as we transition to the realtime web. Finally we talk about what all of this means for life science developers.

Episode 27 : After a Hiatus
September 30th, 2009We emerge from an hiatus with a programming heavy chat: Deepak and Hari start off discussing Haris recent programming experiences as he wrote an app to create protein crystallization grids. Are we there yet?- We discus Rich Hickeys talk at the recently concluded JVM language summit and slide further into other things code and coding. Finally we discus Greg Petskos recent commentary about Twitter in Genome Biology.
Freindfeed helped seed a fruitful online collaboration Pierre Lidenbaum and Andrew Su and the creation of the Gene wiki.

Episode 21 : Interview with Ricardo Vidal , a triple time zone pajama party
June 28th, 2009We have missed recording c2cbio the last few weeks but we are happy to be finally interviewing Ricardo Vidal. Apart from blogging on his My Biotech Life blog , Ricardo recently started as “community liason” at Mendeley. We talk about Mendeley, the social aspects of sharing and tracking what we are reading and whats on the horizon for the platform . We then go onto chat about the usual c2cbio mix , synthetic biology , science blogging in a post-twitter world, how blogging still opens doors and other things online-science.
Interview Recorded on Thursday, June 26th 2009
