Clarissa Booth - Email
PhD Candidate - Started Fall 2008
Hometown: Duluth, MN
Rotating through research labs

Undergraduate Work
2008 - BS in Biochemistry/Molecular Biology from University of Minnesota-Duluth

Interests/Hobbies
Ballet (dancing, teaching, watching), working out, yoga, hiking and camping, cooking, reading, anything that makes me laugh. I also love to boat-watch when I'm in Duluth.

Why I Joined METC
I first chose to pursue toxicology because I'm fascinated by extremely harmful agents and what they're capable of. This program is one of the best toxicology programs in the nation and has so much to offer. The interdisciplinary nature of the program, and the wide variety of research opportunities made it the perfect choice. And coming from the second coldest city in the US (on average), I'll be perfectly at home during the Madison winter.
