Meet...Jennifer Name: Jennifer Lyn Donovan. Department: Psychiatry. I'm a food scientist and pharmacologist. How long at MUSC: Four years, before that I was living in France working for the French government. City in which you were born: Boston. Favorite book or reading material: All day I read scientific and medical journals, so if I ever read anything for fun it's a saucy novel from the Bridget Jones genre.  Favorite TV program: I like the Food Network. Ingredient you must have in your refrigerator: Scotch Bonnet Salsa. I like it hot. Pet peeve: Too much air conditioning. It's cold here in the South. Hobbies: I love to cook, eat good food, and drink good wine. I love to listen to loud music and dance and jump around in my house. I love water and like to swim in the ocean. How do you stay fit: I do a lot of yoga and take classes like the body bar challenge and abs and legs at the Wellness Center. I also have a trainer named Walter, and he has me lifting enormous, heavy weights. The most interesting job you've ever had: Coming up with new ideas for snack foods out of the bits and pieces that come off the Quaker Rice Cake line. I also did some research on toilet bowl water, but that's another story.  If you were told this was your last day to live, what would you do: Freak out for a moment I guess, but then I would fight with all my will to survive.      Friday, July 2, 2004 Catalyst Online is published weekly, updated as needed and improved from time to time by the MUSC Office of Public Relations for the faculty, employees and students of the Medical University of South Carolina.
