I keep seeing this "Brian Thomas, M.S." guy on all of these articles. Since he lists "M.S." after his name on every one (something that most people I know who have Master's degrees don't really do... and I know quite a few), and since I'm assuming the M.S. doesn't stand for multiple sclerosis, I'm curious what discipline his Master of Science is in exactly.

The gentleman doth protest too much, methinks.

I love this guy! I'm starting to picture him as the Billy Mays of anti-evolutionists. "Hi, Brian Thomas here to show you an easy way to dismiss scientific findings outright with just a wave of your hand!"

Maybe the M.S. refers to this job:

“Molecular Scientist

JOB SUMMARY:

Ikonysis has an immediate opening for an outstanding individual with proven ability in molecular biology and molecular genetics. The laboratory will expand the capabilities of its automated microscope to process a number of clinically relevant cytogenetic samples; the laboratory will expand the platforms growing diagnostic molecular biology and FISH components. Responsibilities of the position will include conceptualizing and undertaking research activities related to the development of new products, establishing and monitoring quality-control/quality-assurance activities, implementing new technologies, and troubleshooting problems encountered in the day-to-day activities of the laboratory. The preferred candidate should have at least 2 years of relevant experience at the postdoctoral level in a relevant field. Salary will be commensurate with experience.”

If you spend several minutes searching, you’ll discover he has his MS in biotechnology.

Don’t know where from, or anything about his undergraduate work.

M.S. can mean a variety of things in different academic systems. You need to know where he went to school first.

Not that it will matter much to most of you, but for the record:

Brian Thomas earned his Master of Science in Biotechnology from Stephen F. Austin State University, TX, in December of 1999. He taught Principles of Biology I and II, and General Chemistry I at Navarro College in Waxahachie, TX from 2003-2005. He also taught Undergraduate Biology, Chemistry, Microbiology and Anatomy Lab at Dallas Baptist University from 2005-2008. Here is his thesis paper:
