Bio
Watch Linda Strause, Ph.D., biotech consultant and Assistant Professor at UC San Diego, share why today is a great time to consider careers in science. She lists passion, creativity, and thinking outside the box as three traits that girls should develop to have successful careers as scientists. In her college level nutrition course, she teaches students about the importance of whole body health. Her advice is balance; eating lettuce won't make you thin, and eating birthday cake won't make you obese.
