| Hi, my name is Matthew D. Smith, and I'm currently at Arizona State University. I learned about [[OpenWetWare]] from From weblogs and colleagues., and I've joined because I am a student researcher in molecular biology, and would like to contribute to what I see as a new wave in scientific collaboration. You can [[Special:Emailuser/Matthew D. Smith|email me through OpenWetWare]].
