Caroline Kellogg '98 and Mollie Kornblum '98 spent twelve weeks in the summer of 1997 researching the intricacies of plant conservation and DNA sequencing under the able guidance of Drs. Michael Fay and Mark Chase. The interns learned a tremendous amount from the experience and shared slides and anecdotes from their work with the Friends Visiting Committee. Special thanks are in order for Visiting Committee member Lisa Morrison Baird '76, Professor of Biology at the University of San Diego, for her special correspondence with the students while they were in England. Kew internship stipend support was provided by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.
