September 5, 2012 Researcher looks at how climate change leads to innovative science On Sept. 7, the PLU Chemistry department will host a seminar by Debra Rolison in Morken 103 from 12:30-1:35 pm. In her presentation, “How Subversion, Revolution, and Climate Change Lead to Innovative Science–Enhancing Electrochemical Energy Storage on the Macroscale via Architectural Design on the Nanoscale,” Rolison will share her passion for empowering women and minorities in the sciences, and will give an

at PLU — an advanced degree that leads with clinical experience. She already earned a bachelor’s and master’s degree there and even did clinical instruction and some classroom teaching for about two years at the university. It was the perfect fit. “There’s a lot of research out there about the struggles for a new nurse practitioner,” Bates said, stressing that people are increasingly more challenging to treat. “Family practice, especially, is really challenging.”So, Bates used her doctoral

discuss his experience taking classes in the Rieke Science Center, which is currently undergoing improvements to ensure students like Simpson get the best educational experience possible.Why did you want to study nursing? I chose to study nursing because caring for others is extremely important to me, and I am also extremely interested in biology. So, combining those two aspects in a major like nursing seemed like a great idea. Also, my grandma is a nurse, my brother’s a nurse and my sister’s a nurse
