 * Asthma Files work (summer '09)
 * possibly get some practice interviewing
 * keep thinking about what it means for science communication to be "experimental" (and also what "testing devices" are effective, in what contexts) and how "collaborative" projects "work."
 * Submit essays for publication (summer '09)
 * updated community media ethnography paper
 * updated sci-fi & pedagogy paper after chicago conference
 * others that could eventually become chapters of my dissertation? lit. reviews?
 * possible fulbright app? (october?)

 * Check out NJ's "environmental health clinic" at NYU and try to do an interview.
