An idiom

Posted by Jose Carlos on August 13, 2004

Good evening,

Can anyone help me out with the sentence below? The trouble for me seems to be the verbal idiom TURN SOMEONE OFF TO. Is it well employed? What is the real meaning? Was she attracted to or did she lose interest in biological science?

"She recalls that her first research experience turned her off to biological science - that, and dissection."

Thanks.

Jose Carlos
