So two of my favorite things turned out to be related!

Natalie Portman, my favorite actress, published a paper in NeuroImage when she was in school about Near IR imaging.

Well, it just happens to be that the Director of my lab founded that journal and was “co” Editor in Chief for many years. Our lab has a few dozen covers in NeuroImage (they pick an article each issue from which to get the cover image), and because of that we have framed copies of the journal all over the lab’s walls.

Apparently we have archives of all the issues in our conference room; I fully plan on tracking that issue down!

I’m aware that there are thousands of fan sites (and fans) that are aware of this and sing accolades and what not, but I thought it was worth sharing because I guess my lab has played a large role in the existence of that journal.
