As part of Emory’s STEM program: Imagining the Future, Alpharetta has a guest speaker, JP Canner, presenting to all the H HAP and AP bio classes on Wednesday, March 18th.
Doctor Canner has a PhD in Cellular, Molecular, and Developmental Biology. He is currently a postdoctoral research fellow at Emory working on skeletal muscle repair and regeneration. Emory offers similar programs each year, matching post doctorate fellows with Atlanta area schools. One of their goals is to bring actual research scientists together with students (future scientists) to talk to them about what biological research is really like, the path they took to get where they are today, and, of course, content.
