Education:
B.S. University of Wisconsin
Ph.D. University of Washington School of Medicine
Current Career position: Principal Biologist at Midwest
Research Institute
Most exciting part of my career: seeing something brand
new in nature for the very first time and solving problems that
will benefit society.
Barriers: It takes a lot of time and commitment to be a
scientist. Many years are involved in the training of a Ph.D.-level
biologist (including Bachelor's Ph.D. and Postdoctoral training,
it is at least 10 years after high school). That is probably the
most difficult barrier.
