Natalia Sikora

Welcome Viking Scientists!
 
I'm Ms. Sikora and I'm excited to see you all in person this year. 
 
A little about me:
 I graduated from Northeastern Illinois University in Biology and Secondary Education in 2020. In my undergraduate research I focused on genetics conservation in Rhodiola rosea , and completed my undergraduate thesis on the "Expression Analysis of Antioxidant Genes in Mutant and Wild type Drosophila melanogaster (fruit flies)". 
 
In 2024 I earned my Masters in Biology at NEIU. 
 
This is my sixth year as an Amundsen Viking!
In my spare time I love traveling, horseback riding, painting, sewing, and knitting.
I believe every one of you will leave my classroom as better and more inquisitive scientist.
 
This year I will be teaching IB Biology 2, in which students will be focusing on the macro-biology topics such as Ecology, Natural Selection, and Defense against Disease. 
 
I will also be teaching IB Environment Systems and Societies at both the Higher and the Standard levels. 
 
The easiest way to contact me is through email: [email protected]
During the school year I will respond to messages within two business days.
 
 
 
Super excited to meet all of you!
See you soon, 
Ms. Sikora
