Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.



Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.

  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

It's not the heavy metal poisom that kills you, it just shuts down your nerve cells from restoring its membrane potsntial.

It's not corona that causes you to die from suffocation, it'z just the immun response that results in changes to the mitochondria, powerhouses of the cell, and shortness of breath.

It's not the cancer that kills you, it's the organ failure!
