On the desk in Jennifer Lippincott-Schwartz's office sits a small box labeled "Mr. Wizard's Golgi Model Kit." Along one edge it reads, "Fun for whole lab! No biochemistry, photobleaching, or batteries required." A gift from a former postdoc, the homemade kit is stuffed with sugar packets and other cafeteria-pilfered goodies that Lippincott-Schwartz likes using to demonstrate how the Golgi apparatus – the flattened stack of membranes responsible for sorting and packaging cellular proteins – assembles and operates.
