Science at Cal invites scientists and researchers from the University of California, Berkeley to share their inspiration and enthusiasm for science with our community.
Caminos de la Ciencia presents in partnership with Ciencia en Cal and the Kapor Center for Social Impact.
Science at Cal engages UC Berkeley scientists with the community, to share the excitement and relevance of scientific research.
Caminos de la Ciencia is presented in partnership with Science at Cal and the Kapor Center for Social Impact.
In this presentation, Dr. Javier A. Ceja-Navarro, a researcher at Berkeley National Laboratory, will talk about his career in science and the opportunities that have led him to study microbes, bugs and the environment.
Javier was born in Tuxpan, Nayarit, Mexico, and did all his professional training in his native country. Javier first came to Berkeley nine years ago as a school visitor while finishing his doctoral studies. That first visit to Berkeley influenced his life and desire to explore the biological and chemical sciences at Berkeley and to become a scientist focused on studying the complex interactions that occur in different environments. However, this is not the whole story; Dr. Navarro will take us through a journey, from his curiosity for nature during his childhood, to the different events that led him to choose his career and passion for illustration, nature and science.

From Chemical Engineering to Microbiology and Back
In this presentation, Dr. Javier A. Ceja-Navarro, a researcher at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, will tell us about his career path through science and the opportunities that led him to work with microbes, critters, and the environment.
Javier was born in Tuxpan, Nayarit, Mexico and finished all his undergraduate and graduate coursework in Mexico. He came to UC Berkeley nine years ago as a visiting scholar while finishing his PhD studies. This first visit influenced his life and desire to explore the chemical and biological sciences at Berkeley and to become a scientist studying the complex interactions that occur in different environments. However, this is not the whole story, and Dr. Navarro will take us through his journey, from his childhood curiosity about the natural world and first experiments to the different events that brought him to choose what is now his career and passion for illustration, nature, and science.
