Alex's acceptance speech for the 2010 Benjamin Franklin Award in the Life Sciences is now online at SciVee.tv. The fearless leader of Xfam, grounded by a piddly wee volcanic ash cloud and forced to videoconference to his adoring public. Meanwhile, I'm supposed to schlep over to Cambridge for the annual Xfam meeting in a couple of weeks, and I guarantee that Alex won't accept any volcanic excuses from me.
Congratulations, Alex, and to the whole Pfam and Rfam teams in Cambridge!
