Well, I wanted to share my good news with my IC Family
Despite not yet graduating (I'm finishing my thesis now) I landed a fantastic job at The University of North Carolina Chapel Hill! :hurray: I start Monday!! I will be chef-nerd extraordinaire in their Nutrition Research Institute metabolic kitchen which is one of the leading facilities studying Nutritional genomics in the USA! (What is Nutritional genomics?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutritional_genomics ) I'm working for the lead scientist on an exciting research project. I'll essentially be the food person- if it relates to food- that's me. NRI is a really cool place, and I am WAY out of my comfort zone, but I read something the other day that gave me the courage to apply: "What you want is on the other side of fear" and it turned out to be true! What was that about CLEP credit and distance learning not being sufficient? Ignore the haters! hilarious
