| Naming Notes | In high school I loved biology and dreamed about doing research. Now I am a freshman in college performing research. I consider this virus as a letter to myself. This letter tells me I can do anything I put my mind to. The envelope of the letter would read "From Oakland for Griz". Both of these names are nicknames. Oakland was a name given in high school, while Griz was given in college. The virus also shows evolution within self. "OaklaforG" |
