Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Why did they name the left and right atrium backwards? That seems unnecessarily confusing.

It's only backwards because you're looking at it from the outside from the front. When it's in you, the left is on your left.
