I am looking to interview Dr. Michael Riggs and Dr. Andre-Denis Wright. Both work for the University of Arizona and are in the molecular microbiology department.
Dr. Michael Riggs
Dr. Riggs received his bachelors degree from Texas A&M University and his doctorate from Washington State University. While Dr. Wright received his doctorate from the University of Guelph in Canada.
Although the exact amount of time is unknown, Dr. Wright has a long history in his profession. First, he was a research group leader at the Australian Government's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, then he was the department chair for the Department of Animal Sciences at the University of Vermont, and now he is the Director of the School of Animal and Comparative Biomedical Sciences at the University of Arizona.
Unlike, Dr. Wright, aside from his University of Arizona page, not much can be found on the Dr. Riggs background.
The interviews are planned going to be via google docs as we both have very busy schedules and I do not plan on using any audio for my project.
