Sonja Nodland, PhD received a master’s degree in Cell Biology from Washington University in St. Louis and a PhD from the Microbiology, Immunology and Cancer Biology program at the University of Minnesota. Her academic research was spent studying how studying how various types of immune cells (mostly B cells and neutrophils) are “born” and develop normal function in the human body.
