Paul is a microbiologist at the University of Arizona in Tucson. He found himself a microbiologist after the stark realization that he was not going to be a race car driver after all. When not digging holes to find microbes, he can be found exploring nature with his family, listening to heavy metal, watching Formula 1 races, or working on vintage European cars. Show Less
