Starting out as a nutrition major, I ended up as a Professor of Anatomy and Regenerative Medicine and a Professor of Ophthalmology with two beautiful daughters. How did that all work out? I had to learn to adapt and learn from whatever lessons life sent me. I have been helped along the way by such a great partner�Jerry Bell, who always encouraged me to go for it. My presentation is adapted from one that I give every year to participants in an NSF-funded workshop, �Forward to the Professoriate,� held at Gallaudet University.
