From 2006.igem.org

I am a first year Research Associate in Ron Weiss' lab. I was asked to be in charge of the iGEM2006 team and I am very excited about our plans and possible projects. I am a classically trained Biologist. I have degrees in Chemistry (undergrad); Cellular, Molecular and Biophysical studies (Masters); and Neuroscience (PhD). I was drawn to Synthetic Biology from the first paper I read. I see a huge future in this field and am eager to add my own unique contributions.

I have three beautiful children and a wonderful husband who is a patent agent. My hobbies include computer programming, movies and music. The truth is, I have far too many hobbies to list here! I play violin as more than a hobby, but less than a profession. I love exotic animals and my alter ego would be a zoo veterinarian. I enjoy the athletics I can still do such as rollerblading and weight training. My tastes in music are eclectic ranging from electronica ambient to classical to pop/rap. My tastes in movies are similarly eclectic ranging from oldie B/W films to campy B movies to foreign films to popular culture. I like to think that instead of preferring one type of something, I enjoy variety.
