Federal funding for biomedical sciences plays a critical role in training the next generation of scientists.

Science can promote an understanding between people at a really fundamental level.

I think actively promoting women in science is very important because the data has certainly shown that there has been an underrepresentation.

I enjoyed biology in high school, and that brought me to a research lab at U.C. Santa Barbara. I loved doing experiments, and I had fun with them. I realized this kind of problem-solving fit my intellectual style.

The Connecticut Center for Science and Exploration will be a building that will connect the excitement of science to the surrounding streets, river and highway. These forms are ambitious and dynamic. They appear to reach out beyond their physical limits.

I would write a scientific paper with the devil, if it was on high temperatures. The fellow's probably an authority.

Freedom is the oxygen without which science cannot breathe.

My guilty pleasure is watching the Investigation Discovery channel.
