Geneticist lawyer welcomes new class of biotech law students to ASU
Raised in a small logging town outside Vancouver, Canada, Arizona State University law professor Gary Marchant was one of the few students in his high school class to go to college and he just kept going, receiving his Ph.D. in genetics from ASU, a Master of Public Policy from the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University, and a J.D. from Harvard Law School. Now, he has merged his career-long interests in science and the law to develop the nation's first master's program in biotechnology and genomics law.
