My name is Charles Vrooman and I have a B.S. degree in Microbiology and an A.S. degree in Computer Systems. I have been licensed by the State of California as a Clinical Laboratory Scientist. I have also been registered as a Medical Technologist with the American Society of Clinical Pathology for over 25 years.
I have been recognized for a number of scientific papers published in professional journals in my line of work.

My most recently released thriller, is "Botox: Thriller".

Stefan Lovgren
for National Geographic News

A year ago, researchers from the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel, unveiled a programmable molecular computing machine composed of enzymes and DNA molecules instead of silicon microchips. Now the team has gone one step further. In the new device, the single DNA molecule that provides the computer with the input data also provides all the necessary fuel.(less)
