Discovering the Miracle of Science with Kellie Ann Jurado

Kellie Ann Jurado fell in love with learning as a young child in New Mexico. But the daughter of chili farmers never thought that she could become a scientist, until one day a female mentor showed her the way. She went on to get a PhD from Harvard in the elite field of microbiology and now, in her very own laboratory at the University of Pennsylvania, she is doing cutting-edge work, discovering new viruses. She has made it her life’s mission to help other women and minorities achieve their dreams and embrace careers in science and technology.
