IDEAS Boston -- Session 4

The conference attendees are back from our 2d and final "artistic break." Coming up in this session:

* Michael Gandolfi, composer and music professor

* Emmanuel K. Akyeampong, a Harvard professor who helped to establish the African Public Broadcasting Foundation

* Joan S. Brugge, Harvard Medical School cell biologist

* Jay Allison, NPR broadcast journalist

And that will be all she wrote. I'll blog the rest of the conference, so stay tuned. But I won't be rubbing shoulders with any of these brainiacs at the reception, I'm sorry to say -- because I gotta run to a potluck dinner at my kids' school. I may post some photos of the conference tomorrow, if they came out OK. If they didn't come out OK, I won't bother. Enjoy the long weekend, Boston!
