Christine Chapel gives up a promising career in Biochemistry to become a nurse in Starfleet, and then later she signs up for a five year deep space exploration mission on the USS Enterprise NCC-1701. She hope that taking up this position will enable her to find her missing fiance` Dr Roger Corby, an archaeologist who disappeared in Exo-III, she put this to one side and was always professional, performing her duties as nurse to Dr McCoy .
These were mainly to organise the duties of the orderlies,
and other medical personnel, and helping McCoy with physical examinations, she
has the ability to anticipate what a given situation will require, showing not
only her intelligence, but also her dedication to duty, when the Vulcan
ambassador Sarek suffers two heart attacks she had already checked Spock medical
file to see if in an emergency, Spock could be a blood doner for his father. She
assists with the cryogenic open heart surgery, and stays by his side until he
has recovered.
She finds DR Corby After Captain Kirk searches for him on Exo-III, Chapel and Kirk beam down to the underground caverns on the planet, Chapel once again embraces her Fiance`, but this happiness is very short lived, Christine discovers to her horror that Korby is in fact an android, the Roger Korby she had loved died a long time ago, replaced by a cold calculating robot. She continues on with her five year mission among the stars.
Chapel is attracted to Spock but she knows this is really one
sided, she rarely lets her guard down but she finds it hard to hide her feelings
for Mr. Spock, he is aware of how she feels, but can not return her affection.
When nurse Chapel is infected by the Psi 2000 virus Spock’s Vulcan resolve is
stronger than hers, there seems to be a connection but it is not love. This is
perhaps the key to her character and why she is committed to her profession, it
helps her forget her love for men who can never return it .
Chapel’s training as a nurse leads to studying medicine in more detail. She returns to earth after her five year mission on board the Enterprise, she studies to become a doctor, and in 2270 she returns to the Enterprise for a second tour of duty this time as a doctor. Chapel is able to demonstrate some of her skills during the V’ger incident, she is there for Spock when he mind probes V’ger and was in grave danger. This time as his doctor.
After this she takes up a post to Starfleet Command, where she is called upon to direct emergency operations after an alien probe attacks Earth in 2286. The abilities Christine has shown throughout her career her caring skills her ability to work under pressure , her medical skills have made her perfect candidate for this crucial role, and allowed her to aspire to the top of her profession.
