About the Author...
Hello
there! My name is Brittany Lehrer and this year (2011) I am a freshman
at the University of Wisconsin- La Crosse. I graduated from New London
High School and I am currently studying to become either a
surgeon or a pediatric doctor, but as for now I must first make it
through undergraduate school. Here in La Crosse, I have declared biology
as my major, with a biomedical concentration, and chemistry as my minor.
I am from Hortonville,
Wisconsin, a small town somewhat near Appleton. In my free time I like
to play volleyball, run, swim, watch movies, listen to music, and
hangout with my family and friends.
For this class, Organismal
Biology, we were to create a webpage about a specific organism. I knew
in the beginning that creating a webpage would be no easy feat; however,
I didn’t really realize just how much work it would require. This
website has not only taught me about the amazing organism Ginkgo biloba,
but it has also taught me so much about the internet and all the work it
takes to perfect just one page.
Each webpage contributes to greater project at
MULTIPLEORGANISMS.NET.
The goal for MultipleOrganisms.net is to create a website for every
species on the planet. I am contributing one more organism, Ginkgo biloba,
to this great goal. After reading my site about
Ginkgo biloba, I hope that you have a better understanding of this
one-of-a-kind organism. I, as well as my classmates, have been working
very hard on this project, so I urge you to check out some of their
amazing pages as well. Thank you and ENJOY!
The best way to get a hold of me is through email. Please feel free to
email me about questions, comments, or concerns at
lehrer.brit@uwlax.edu.
If you have any questions about the
greater project at MultipleOrganisms.net, don’t hesitate to
email either one of our wonderful professors for Organismal Biology. You
can reach Dr. Sandland at sandland.greg@uwlax.edu and Dr. Volk at
volk.thom@uwlax.edu. Thank you for reading my website about the
fascinating Ginkgo biloba!
** A HUGE thank you goes out to Angela Gutsmiedl for helping me edit my webpage! And also to Sarah Kruse and Rachel Fenske for keeping
me grounded throughout all the stressful times while putting it together.
Thank you!
