At this time of year as the Nobel Prizes are being announced, we think it important to remember those other, notable awards, the Ig-Nobel prizes offered by the Annals of Improbable Research, an organization dedicated to recognizing Research that makes people LAUGH and then THINK.
This year, the Ig Nobels Honor Studies of Lap Dancing, Potato Chips, Armadillos, Fleas and Soft Drink-Based Contraception, among others. For more details visit Improbable Research.
NOTICE: It is rumored that the illustrious team at Improbably Research will finally be bringing their fantastic show to Chicago next February. The Illinois Science Council will be lobbying for public access and will keep you posted.
