About MeHello :D Thank you for visiting my website/blog!
For those of you who don't know me, my name is Alexis. In May 2014, I received a Bachelor of Science degree from the Richard Stockton College of NJ (now Stockton University) with a major in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. I've been a graduate student in the Biology Ph.D. program at the Pennsylvania State University since August 2014. I grew up with a deep love of science, especially biology, and I wish to share and spread that love as much as I can. As such, the section that will likely get the most attention on here will be Research. I also want to serve as an indirect guide for anyone who might eventually pursue a graduate degree. I've broken that goal into two parts, Sci Comm and Life, with the hope that 1) you can get an inside look at the life of a grad student (maybe two occasionally), and 2) it will motivate more people to pursue science as a career. I hope you enjoy my blog, and feel free to contact me! I'd be happy to hear from any readers :) |

From Neandertals to lemurs, conch to lizards, and all of the measurements, collections, coding, field work, lab work, and presentations in between. |
Sci CommPart of being a scientist is learning how to effectively communicate your research to all kinds of audiences. This blog will feature experiences I've had, as well as the new #SullyAsksAScientist.

LifeHere's what makes me Me :)
I'll also use this section to talk about my life as a grad student. We'll chat about food, family, and friends. Oh, and also cats (see cat tax below). |
