Introducing Doctor Bednarczyk!

I have to make mention to you, to the world, to whomever will listen - how proud I am of my husband. He has been working his tail off the entire time I have known him. He had goals and those goals have officially been met.

Tuesday, April 27, 2010 he successfully defended his Doctoral Dissertation.

He now has a PhD in Infectious Disease Epidemiology! What is that you might ask? Well it is the study of diseases in populations. A good example of what he studies....do you remember H1N1 aka "Swine Flu"?? Well he spent countless hours working at the New York State Health Department on response teams, conference calls, running numbers, writing reports, etc.

I knew nothing about the field until I met my hubby. Let me tell you, I have learned a lot about it in the past 5 years. It is a pretty interesting field. His dissertation dealt with Pap Smears in developing countries and HPV vaccination practices on college campuses...so if you ever want to know anything about it....give him a call. I'm sure he would be more than happy to discuss it with you.

YAY for Dr. Bob!
