Greg Chin My name is Daron Yim, and I am a neuroscience major at the College of Wooster. At my home institution, I research genetic factors of Alzheimer’s using the fruit fly as a model organism. My experience researching fruit flies has brought me to Dr. Pankaj Kapahi’s lab in the Buck Institute for Research on Aging …
Hi! My name is Emily Yang, and I’m a senior studying biomedical engineering at The University of Texas at Austin. I’m working at the Center for Stem Cell Therapeutics and Imaging (CSTI) under Dr. Khalid Shah at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, and my mentor is Dr. Jasneet Khalsa. CSTI is focused on advancing immunotherapies to …
This summer, I worked in the Lithgow Lab on a project aiming to improve our understanding of some of the processes involved in aging and age-related diseases, such as Parkinson’s disease. Dysfunction in mitochondria, a part of the cell involved in energy production, is commonly seen in aging, but how organisms respond to this dysfunction, …
Hi, I am Vinay Veluvolu a bioengineering and computer science major from the University of Maryland College Park. This summer I interned at the SENS Research Foundation as part of their education program. I worked on the senescence immunotherapy project under the mentorship of Dr. O’Connor and Dr. Sharma. My previous research experiences were focused …
Eric Sun is a rising senior studying Chemistry and Physics at Harvard University. He is originally from Pueblo, Colorado. Previously, Eric has completed research projects ranging from machine learning and computational modeling to characterizing the functions of new genes and analyzing computer vision models. He is very interested in the biology of aging and believes …
My name is Sanjana Saravanan, and I received my bachelor’s degree in bioengineering from Oregon State University. During my undergrad career, I spent three years in a biochemistry/biophysics lab studying protein structure and dynamics. My project involved characterizing the binding interactions between two cargo transport proteins that are critical for normal biological function. I am …
My name is Catherine Liu. I have a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering and plan to return to the University of Michigan for a Master’s in Biomedical Engineering. My undergraduate research experience consisted of exploring the implementation of a standardized procedure for 3D bioprinting blood vessel channel scaffolds as well as pressure-volume analysis of heart stiffness. …
My name is Tori Lazerson, and I am a bioengineering major at the University of California, San Diego. I have been involved with research on cardiac extracellular matrix hydrogels at the Christman Lab at UC San Diego for the past two and a half years. I also conducted research on the development of a tumor-derived …
Hi! My name is Danielle Hoffman, and I am pursuing a double major in microbiology and public health. I have had the honor to spend this summer working at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in the Center for Stem Cell Therapeutics and Imaging (CSTI). I have been working under the guidance of my PI, Dr. Khalid …
My name is Helen Heo, and I am an undergraduate at the University of Wisconsin-Madison majoring in Molecular Biology and Neurobiology. At UW-Madison, I work in the lab of Dr. Darcie Moore, studying asymmetric segregation in mitotic neural stem cells. The Moore Lab is broadly interested in stem cell aging and how stem cells may …
