The Iggy Adventures of Prof. Taguchi

Fumiaki Taguchi, winner of the 2009 Ig Nobel Prize in biology for for demonstrating that kitchen refuse can be reduced more than 90% in mass by using bacteria extracted from the feces of giant pandas, has made a science web site for children. One of its many sections describes Professor Taguchi’s adventures at the Ig Nobel Prize Ceremony and the Ig Informal Lectures. (NOTE: The entire site is in Japanese.)
