Abstract
What are the things that draw us to a particular field of science and what is it that keeps us there? For Dr. Bahia, there was a particular attraction to sensory nerves; the monitors of the worlds inside and outside of our bodies. In this talk, Dr. Bahia will outline her career path as a neuroscientist resulting in the title of Research Associate. She will also talk about the longest project she has participated in, 'exploring the role of ion channels in sensory nerves' (rupress.org/jgp/article/147/6/451/43495/The-exceptionally-high-reactivity-of-Cys-621-is)
