About the Author

Kelly Cowan started teaching microbiology at Miami University in 1993. Her specialty is teaching microbiology for pre-nursing/allied health students at the university's Middletown campus. After working as a dental hygienist, she earned her Ph.D. at the University of Louisville and later worked at the University of Maryland's Center of Marine Biotechnology and the University of Groningen in The Netherlands. Kelly has published (with her students) 24 research articles stemming from her work on bacterial adhesion mechanisms and plant-derived antimicrobial compounds. But her first love is teaching--both doing it and studying how to do it better. She is past chair of the Undergraduate Education Committee of the American Society for Microbiology (ASM). Her current research focuses on the student achievement gap associated with economic disparities, as well as literacy in the science classroom. In her spare time, Kelly hikes, reads, and still tries to (s)mother her three grown kids.

Jennifer Bunn, RN, is a registered nurse, having spent most of her career in rural medicine, where she has had the opportunity to interact with patients of all ages. Her experience includes emergency medicine and critical care, pediatrics, acute care, long-term care, and labor and delivery. Currently, Jennifer works on an acute care unit. Over the span of her career, she has enjoyed mentoring and precepting LPN and RN students. Jennifer writes medical content for websites, apps, and blogs.
