Former employee (definitely different location) - I got moved to "the back" because of resting bitch face.

Prof here as well - entered the job within the last 3 years. If you want to do anything other than write grants and run a lab (and especially if you want to be at a SLAC), teaching is pretty much mandatory. Teaching your own courses is more mandatory.

How do cats do in the frozen north? We have had cats in the upper midwest and now southern US. They still prefer to burrow into blankets or find sunbeams.

The team of experts was stumped because science is still advancing rapidly in the understanding of how skin grafts between different individuals progress (hence the government funding in that area of health care). Most skin grafts use the patient's own skin, so there is no mixture of cell types/DNA and no chance for rejection by the patient's immune system. This was an allogeneic graft (from a different person), which means that it could be recognized by Mitch's immune system at some point and rejected, but the experts don't know how to predict at what point or even if this will occur. It's also possible that the donor cells could spread beyond the site of the graft, taking their DNA with them.

Lactose intolerance is due to inability to break down the molecule during digestion (there's an enzyme that is supposed to do this and your body isn't making that enzyme). If you don't break down the lactose molecules then the bacteria in your intestines get anold of them, ferment them, and make tons of methane in the process. Putting milk in your eyes shouldn't be a problem since the number of bacteria there is much lower and the amount of milk would be much less than in your intestines. There also shouldn't be any difference between lactose tolerant and lactose intolerant individuals putting milk in their eyes, since lactase enzymes are only produced by cells in the digestive system (not the eye cells).
