of Biology
mdspradl@sdccd.edu
Professional Background:
I received a B.A. in 1983 from Goucher College located in Baltimore
Maryland and a Ph.D. in Biology in 1989 from The University of
California Irvine. I started teaching as a sophomore in college when I
got a job as a teaching assistant in our introductory biology labs. I
continued in graduate school. After I finished my degree I had part
time teaching positions at Irvine Valley College, and Cal State Los
Angeles as well as UC Irvine. I have been teaching at City College
since January of 1996.
Research Opportunities For Students:
This semester we are starting a program with Dr.
James Nieh at UCSD. Dr. Nieh does research with social insects such as
bees. He is interested in how these insects communicate with each other
about the location of food, water etc. San Diego City students have the
opportunity to get involved in this research and possibly travel to
places like Brazil to do research and to conferences to present the
results of their research. For more information please contact me via
e-mail or phone.
