Endless Fascination*

Abstract

Each of us fortunate enough to have had a career in experimental science has a tale to tell, often one with surprising twists and turns, full of lessons that can help guide those embarking on a similar journey. At the very least, a well-written recounting of a career can be entertaining. I offer my memory's version of my career in immunology and hope the readers will find it of value or at least of interest.
