It’s time for another b5media Science & Health Channel Topic du Jour! (I still need to streamlining that name.) It’s our own mini-Carnival: A topic and day are chosen, and each blog in the Channel posts about the topic on the day, preferably in a manner that connects the Topic du Jour with the regular topic of the blog.
The Topic du Jour this time around: Sun
The Day: again… Thursday, June 8
Check back here as I round up the channel’s contributions. Happy reading!
