Golden Goose Award Video


The folks behind the 2013 Golden Goose Awards have put together a really nice video highlighting this year’s winners. You may recall that the Golden Goose Awards were the brainchild of Rep. Jim Cooper (D-TN) who had grown frustrated with the occasional targeting by his colleagues in Congress of so-called “silly-sounding science” — shrimp on treadmills, towel-folding robots, things that are easy to mock unless you understand the science behind the “silliness,” which many critics didn’t. So the Golden Goose Awards seek to highlight research that might have sounded silly at the outset, but have returned enormous payoff, often in unexpected ways. This year’s video is well-produced and well worth watching!
