I'm a PhD student at The University of Alabama, Department of Geology. If you want to find out more about this, hit my research page.

I'm very interested in the problems that women in science have to deal with. Some really good sites on this are:

4000 Years of Women in Science
Women in Sciences and Engineering

Association for Women in Science
The Role Model Project for Girls-- A project to get girls interested in the sciences and math.

Some other women-oriented sites I like to frequent include:
