2015 Ig Nobel Prizes
The 2015 Ig Nobel Prizes have now been announced.
(Georgia Tech people took home the physics prize for their work on urination duration, and I also noticed a Somervillian as one of the recipients in the prize for diagnostic medicine. Also, the economics and mathematics prizes are fantastic.)
