Please forgive the delay…

While we had planned to begin our vitamin A deficient diet at the end of last week, we have unfortunately run into a snag. Ian G., our fourth test subject, has been forced by personal circumstances to drop out of the NIR vision pilot study. With an extra set of equipment and only three data points, one of whom is a control (Gabriel) who will be taking plain old vitamin A alongside our VAD diet, we felt it would be best to push off our experiment start date another month or so while we find a replacement and get him/her into shape.

Friday is Baseline Day

Just a short update, for those of you waiting to see what’s going on with the NIR project

We will be starting the VAD on Wednsday (​0326) barring any unforeseen roadblocks. This means that we will be taking baseline readings before then (hopefully Friday) and will be letting you guy’s know how it goes. If you were a supporter through the microryza (now experiment.com) fundraiser, you can log in there to get the first round of hard data this weekend.

Edit: I should never mutlitask. Changed start dates. Sorry.
