Born in Belgrade, Yugoslavia (now Serbia), Bora was always interested in animals and nature. His studies in veterinary medicine were interrupted by the 1990s war in the Balkans, when he arrived in the USA. He went to graduate school at North Carolina State University where he studied how bird brains measure time of day (circadian rhythms) and time of year (photoperiodism). He started ‘A Blog Around The Clock’ in 2004. He teaches introductory biology to non-traditional students at North Carolina Wesleyan College, organizes the annual ScienceOnline conference, and edits Open Laboratory – the annual anthology of the best writing on science blogs. - http://coturnix.org - boraz Contact Bora Zivkovic via email.

Derek Mueller of Sydney Australia won this year?s Cyberscreen Science film festival with his physics film ?Mission Possible: Graphene?. The festival took place during the Science Online 2012 conference last weekend in Raleigh, North Carolina. Despite the dense subject matter of the film (pun intended), Derek kept it entertaining with fantastic storytelling and fun characters. We will be doing a full feature on Derek?s work in the near future on PsiVid, stay tuned!
