The Ig Nobel Prize: Levitating frogs, constipated scorpions, and other science that makes you laugh then think

from Tiny Matters

The Ig Nobel Prize celebrates discoveries and inventions that are unusual and imaginative. Think of it as the younger, more fun sibling of the revered Nobel Prize. Ig Nobel Prize winners are often recognized for research that might not make it into a more traditional science journal—one that doesn’t publish studies about levitating frogs or constipated scorpions. You’re in for a fun one. Links to the Tiny Show & Tell stories here and here.
