people together to create great gathering places. April Reitan (2002)After graduating from PLU 2002, I taught/tutored international and developmentally delayed students at Tacoma Community College. Since I also have a BS in Biology, I took a job at Fred Hutchison Cancer Research Center. I work in a group in Public Health Sciences which conducts cancer studies. Primarily, we conduct breast and ano-genital cancer studies, but we also have others like HPV-related, testicular, and skin cancer studies.
