The Curious Eye is a fun and scientific look at the world around me. When a topic catches my attention, it is fun to explore it and all the topics that come up while doing the research. There is so much science going on around us every day that goes unnoticed. Hopefully the column will help others become curious about things they see in the world.

A sophomore at Northern Michigan University (in Computer Science) after a semester at Bay De Noc Community College studying electronics; Dianna has recently developed a keen interest in robotics. She is pictured above programming a robot (on the lab bench above her right hand) using the MAST lab facilities and her own Lego Mindstorms Robotic Invention System. Most recently she has been involved in many successful storm chases.

Her interests include Astronomy, Atmospheric Science, Cell Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Electronics, Genetics, Geology, Microbiology, Molecular Biology, and Physics.
