[Histonet] Opening for a Histologist in Bar Harbor, ME

[Mary A. Ascenzi]

I lived in Bar Harbor and used to ride my bike or use my crosscountry 
skis to get to my job at Jackson Lab. If you are an outdoor 
enthusiast, Bar Harbor is a great place to live. I  left because I 
was in my 20s and wanted to see more of the world before I settled 
down.
