I joined the Wythe lab at the start of 2024 as a first-year student at the University of Virginia, where I intend on majoring in biology and minoring in computer science. My interest in research was initially sparked by a class I took in high school where I was introduced to biochemistry research and completed an independent project. The courses I have taken at UVA in cell biology and chemistry have only increased my curiosity and interest in research. After completion of my undergraduate studies, I hope to pursue further education in the fields of cell and developmental biology or bioinformatics. At the Wythe lab, I hope to gain experience and knowledge in the field of cell biology so that I can pursue my interest in research.
