aside from being a kick butt photographer, i do have a day job.  i've had it for 7 long years.  it used to be bayer diagnostics and it is now siemens healthcare.  everyone always asks me what i do.  i tell them:  "i make dna." 

let me give you a more detailed look into the world of bDNA...

we synthesize, purify and analyze various synthetic single strands of DNA (a.k.a RNA)...DNA is double stranded...but....let's not get sidetracked here.  the DNA goes into various pools (HIV, HBV, HCV), is ligated into amplifiers, pre-amplifiers or is processed into label probes. 

the final product is a kit.  a diagnostic kit, testing the viral load of patients in doctor's offices and clinics. 

woo hoo for science!  this is the system our DNA supports.  check out the video.
