Dent Cartoon Archive

by Nick on September 2, 2008

Alex Dent’s hilarious cartoons that caricatured the turmoil of life as a postdoc are a must see. Alex produced most of his cartoons during early 90’s, and lit up many an edition of the NIH Catalyst newsletter, until he finally gave up cartooning in 2002.

But the good news is that earlier this year, with a little help from his friends, Alex set up an archive of cartoons so that future generations can understand the 9 types of principle investigators, sing the post-doc blues and be fore-warned about  the three stages of Post-doc life. Check them all out at dentcartoons.blogspot.com.
