Photo Gallery

This is a small introduction to the photo gallery you are about to sample. Years ago my good friend, colleague and close collaborator – Dr. Alexander (Sasha) Yakunin (http://www.labs.chem-eng.utoronto.ca/yakunin/) received a gift of several silly looking wool hats meant to protect his main asset – his brain – from overheating in a Russian-style sauna. Knowing my affection for this wintertime “sport” activity, Sasha was kind enough to share his gift with me.

Since brain-overheating is one of most dangerous work-related hazards in our job, we decided that it is only appropriate to keep the hats handy in the office and let visiting guests and lab members to try them on. The results of this ongoing tradition are in front of you.
