Where are the 2004-2005 ECOS Fellows going from here?
Dianna Fairchild hopes to begin a Master’s in Education in 2005 while she simultaneously completes requirements for a secondary teacher certificate and a B.A. in biology. She’d like to spend summers working in the field of wildlife biology.
Frank Janes will be attending the University of Colorado School of Medicine on an Air Force Scholarship. He anticipates doing his residency in internal medicine.
Sarah Keller will attend a tropical ecology class in Peru this summer. In the fall she’ll take on the title of free-lance biologist and plans on savoring life as a non-student before going to graduate school.
Lauren Priestman will be working for the Rocky Mountain Research Station in Missoula as a biological technician doing botanical surveys.
Hollie Sexton plans on applying to medical school and take a much needed rest in the fall. In the spring she’d like to go abroad to do humanitarian aid work.
Andrew Whiteley, our only graduating PhD fellow, has accepted a Post-Doctoral Fellowship with Louis Bernatchez at Laval University in Quebec City. He will be examining gene expression differences in reproductively isolated trophic morphs of the lake whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis) .
