Why is my new lab awesome?

Today I sat in on an experiment where we took gold nanoparticles, placed them into a piece of pork meat, and then irradiated it with a high-powered laser. The signal output from the meat was then captured using an ultrasound detector.

In short, it was pretty much the greatest thing ever.

pork is used because it mimics the properties of human tissue. i'm sure beef is fine too if it has sufficient fat content.
