Manga master at the 2010 Ig Informal Lectures
A special guest gave a brief talk at last year’s (2010) Ig Informal Lectures at MIT. (The lectures happen two days after the Ig Nobel Prize ceremony. All the new winners—and occasionally a special guest or two— each give brief, free public talks).

NOTE: The 2011 Ig Informal Lectures will happen on Saturday, October 1, in MIT Building 26, room 100, beginning at 1 pm. You are invited to come.
