I have a PhD in Biochemistry (cuny 1986) and never worked. My thesis project involved the assay for deoxyuridine in biological samples as a potential source of mutation and aging.  I am currently a graduate student in Anthropology at The California State University Los Angeles in Anthropology and am continuing a personal project that began in graduate school in biochemistry,continued as a personal and  independant project My thesis project involved concerning a professors remark that DNA was unique in nature - to reconcile this notion with modern concepts in science, in particular evolution,emergence  and the conservation of energy laws, thermodynamic considerations  in the physical sciences.
