What I Did With My Biological Sciences Degree: 'From the phylogenetics of deep sea bacteria to environmental science in the Arctic' - March 27, 2014
by Michelle Saport |
Thursday, March 27, 5:30-6:30 p.m. ConocoPhillips Integrated Science Building, Room 105A
Join Heather Hall as she recounts her journey from the phylogenetics of deep-sea bacteria to environmental science in the Arctic. Hall currently works for SGS North American Inc. as a quality service manager.
She grew up on the Chesapeake Bay, dreaming of a career in marine biology where she would spend her days swimming with the fish and collecting seashells from tropical seas. After earning a B.S. and M.S. in microbiology from the University of Maryland - College Park, Heather started her professional career teaching anatomy & physiology to nursing students at the community college she'd first attended while still in high school. When she had the opportunity to move to Alaska, sight unseen, she jumped-without a job or an idea where she'd land. It didn't take long before she made a splash-first as a project manager and later as the quality assurance manager-in an analytical laboratory.
This event is free and open to the public. Pizza will be provided. For more information, visit the UAA Biological Sciences website.
