I know what you're thinking: "Steph's not married to Matt Damon or Channing Tatum!"
Maybe not...but I AM, in fact, married to a guy who made the cover of a magazine...a scientific journal, to be exact!
This colorful image* is one of Tony's and it was selected as the cover of this month's issue of "Biology of Reproduction." Pretty cool, huh? (I should add that Tony did not "submit" his image as a possible contender for the cover--something you can do; instead, it was chosen because the editors loved it when reading his manuscript submission. Very flattering!)
In case you're interested, here's the link to Tony's
abstract. And here's a
close-up of the image. We're all very proud! (
And I don't have to fight off millions of screaming women when we go out...ladies, he's all mine!)
P.S. News of Tony's cover photo has traveled fast. Photographers for a few major news sources captured the reactions of President Obama and the first lady, as well as the moment when the president shared the big news with Joe Biden. They know where the government's science dollars are going! (House Speaker John Boehner declined to comment, but we're pretty sure he wept with joy.)

Pop Quiz! Tony's image is of: A) amoebas in soapy water B) a mouse testis C) the Aurora Borealis over Alaska or D) zebra fish roe? If you guessed...
B, then you're correct and a super smart cookie! Or a former classmate/labmate/coworker of Tony's!
