Rebecca Burgess
Graduate Student
The place I call home is Cooperstown, NY, a small town upstate. My second home is Ithaca, NY, where I studied Biochemistry at Cornell. I have done research for most of my free summers, doing research on such areas as: circadian rhythms, fatty acids and cancer, herpes virus, and yeast mitochondrial proteins. My current interests have been focused toward cell cycle regulation and signal transduction, and related topics. This past summer I took a break from science and worked as a waitress and just generally hung around. I do enjoy things other than science and food service, however, namely: tae kwon do, listening to/making music, spoiling my pet goldfish, photography, going out and eating food/drinking, watching movies, and shopping for specialty cheese.
