The <strong>Harvard</strong> University BBS website: <strong>January</strong> <strong>Bulletin</strong><br />
Despite her declaration that she would "never live in Boston again,"<br />
she returned for her post-doc in Joshua Kaplan's lab in the MGH<br />
Department <strong>of</strong> Molecular Biology. There she studied sensory<br />
signaling in C. elegans. Life as a postdoctoral fellow must have<br />
proved better than her previous experience in Boston, because she<br />
accepted a position as an assistant pr<strong>of</strong>essor at the MGH Cancer<br />
Center in Charlestown in 1996 and has been living across the street<br />
from her lab ever since.<br />
Hobbies: Hart is still an avid reader <strong>of</strong> fiction, fantasy, and science<br />
fiction, but now her library includes children books as well, which<br />
she enjoys reading with her young daughter. Outside, she is known<br />
as a terror on the ice during MGH pick up hockey games. Recently,<br />
she was given the honor <strong>of</strong> speaking at the Ignoble awards in<br />
Sanders Theater in Cambridge, where she was given two tasks: 1)<br />
to fill 24 seconds with science jargon explaining neurobiology that<br />
no one could understand, and 2) to distill it down to seven words:<br />
"The brain still fails to understand itself".<br />
