    If you graduate college at 21, you could possibly finish your PhD by 24…would definitely be a bit of a rush but maybe in the Jurassic Park universe there’s so much demand for those sorts of experts that they fast-tracked it.

      Dr. Ellie Satler is in her late twenties, according to the book. Laura Dern, the actress, was simply playing older than she actually was. Also, in the context of these films, Jurassic Park’s operations were still a tightly held secret at the time Dr. Satler would have been obtaining her credentials.
