"Dark Matter: A Tale of Power and Intrigue in the Lab..."

The NYTimes today featured a new film based on the actions of a physics graduate student who in 1991--outraged that his thesis had been passed over for a prize--killed five people and paralyzed one before taking his own life. Much there about the culture of the physics lab, and of the cross-cultural minefield needing to be negotiated by students who come from other cultures (like China) to be educated in the U.S. See here</a>--> good preparation for the gothic melodrama to come!
