Stanton, who lives in Athens, Ga., has been writing and performing since 1995 and started her main band, a pop and experimental rock and roll band called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.casperfandango.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Casper and the Cookies<\/a>, with her husband Jason in 1999. She sings vocals and plays drums and bass. The band has toured extensively in the US, Canada and Japan and has opened for the B-52s. Stanton, who has a B.A. in art and biology, said in applying for the residency, &#8220;&#8230;I feel it is extremely important to have positive female role models both in science and music, often still male-dominated fields. Jane Goodall has been my idol since 1980. I&#8217;d love to strive to be the Jane Goodall of music.&#8221; Stanton is the final of four resident songwriters at NIMBioS this academic year. We&#8217;re excited to have Stanton&#8217;s musical talents at NIMBioS this month!
