The 2018 Ig Nobels



September 18, 2018

OK, it’s time for my favorite science prizes, the Ig Nobels.


The highlights:


Wine experts can detect, by smell, a single fly in a glass of wine.

A pediatrician from Japan won a prize for his self-colonoscopy study. He’d rather you not try it at home, though.

Getting your aggression out on a virtual voodoo doll can actually help reduce workplace stress. Thankfully, actual voodoo was not used in the study.
