The Story Collider website states that Megan Hatlen “earned her PhD from Cornell University and performed research in oncology at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Megan is a California native; she was raised in Bakersfield and earned her bachelors in Bioengineering at the University of California San Diego. When not running experiments, Megan can be found with her wife, Jess, holding their chubby Pomeranian back as he strives to attack anything and everything on the Minuteman Bikeway.”
