  <title><![CDATA[The Comedy of Science ]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>While science and humor appear to be mutually exclusive fields, <a href="https://lewlefton.gatech.edu">Lew Lefton</a>,&nbsp;faculty member in the School of Mathematics, Associate Vice President for Research Computing, and&nbsp;Assistant&nbsp;Dean for Information Technology in the&nbsp;College of Sciences, has bridged these two seemingly distant worlds by performing science comedy and investigating the science&nbsp;of&nbsp;comedy. Lefton&nbsp;began performing standup as a hobby while a graduate student in the 1980s.&nbsp;Today, Lefton&nbsp;continues to bridge these two passions, making science the subject of his comedy; &ldquo;Comedy is the noun; science is the adjective.&rdquo;</p>
