CPCC

Reflection:   CPCC is a organization for grads who love cytotechnology and want to educated about a aspect of scince, one student says that ever since he was in college he loved learning about genetics and cells. So he went in to this and found a job and is loving where he works at. One day I hope I can find a job that suits me and what I am interested in, like chemistry and physics. I would go in to this because another aspect of science which is interesting to me is biology and this is a more fine asspect of that.
