Gwendolyn Clare is a New Englander transplanted to North Carolina, where she survives almost exclusively on a diet of fruit and homemade yogurt. She has a BA in Ecology, a BS in Geophysics, and is currently working to add another acronym to her collection. She harbors a somewhat perverse affection for poisonous lifeforms and looks forward to doing fieldwork in Guyana, where she expects to find them in ample supply. Away from the laboratory, she enjoys practicing martial arts, adopting feral cats, and writing speculative fiction. Her short fiction is forthcoming in Abyss & Apex.
