I'm a biologist - my bachelors and masters are in bioinformatics, but now I'm getting my PhD in biochemistry/molecular/cell biology.

Mayness - Do you work in bioinformatics? I've always been interested in the mix of biology/computer science and when I was in school I studied artificial intelligence with is/was the computer science approach of using biological information to influence computer science. I was actually thinking of taking a couple bioinformatics courses because it sounds interesting. I also like manipulating large amounts of data and making sense of it which seems to be a large part of bioinformatics.

I'm a writer. I have several (mostly) useless undergraduate and graduate degrees in various things...

I don't so much anymore - I'm more focused on the actual lab bench work now. I would definitely recommend taking classes if it sounds interesting to you, it's still a fairly hot field and there's always a lot of interesting new stuff coming out.

I actually took an AI class though the CS department when I was doing my masters, that's a great background to have in bioinformatics, since there's always a need for programs that can "learn" to recognize patterns more effectively. (Although I learned more about robots than I ever needed to know, lol.)

i work in a call center- in collections. it's kind of a bummer job but at least i sometimes get to help people that really need help and that occasionally makes me feel less horrible about what i do.

if i had my choice i'd either teach english or work in a drug or sexual assault counseling program. maybe some day i'll be able to afford to go to school so i can have a career - in the meantime it's just a job for me.

I have a B.S in Family & Child Studies. I am a housewife and hopefully future stay at home mom. If I ever go back to school (which I do not foresee in the next 25 years), I will go for a Masters in Nurse Midwifery with the goal of attending home births.
