Title Nine

My first reunion is coming up this weekend, so I'm trying on new labels that describe what I do.  "Making graphs pretty for doctors" just ain't gonna cut it.  The top contender is "I'm a researcher at Harvard Medical School."  (said all casual and modestly, of course)  But does it sound as impressive as I am intending it to be or just nerdy and esoteric?  I want to see eyes widening in awe and not glazing over in boredom.  If all else fails, there is always "I save lives."
