Okay, that's not Baltimore but Hunt Valley, but it had a lot of good info to mull over, can't help with FL though.

With the Food and Drug Administration, National Institute of Health, along with some other government/private 'medical' research agencies (including even the biowar folks at Ft. Detrick) the area has quite a bit of medical research and medical policy careers going on in Montgomery County area (i.e. an hour from Baltimore).

Not so much for this job but for her 'next one'--she'd be in the area for a good follow-on career.

I think at some point she would be very interested in working in public policy (read DC) so that's a very relevant point!

Well I just heard that Sarasota is the winner. I'll have to tell her to watch out for Dakota. ;)

I now know 3 people (good friend from high school, this girl who was my maid of honor, and my MIL) who are all in the greater Tampa area. Good for visiting! :)

She said it was a combination of advice from her mentors, and her gut.

I did mention Dakota to her. She laughed. :)

You can imagine the conversation, can't you? "Oh, and a guy said to send him your photo and maybe he'd meet you at the airport." "No, he's not creepy ... it was meant as a joke" :lol:
