Alumni CSCG Fellow

I’m passionate about the biology and biochemistry of the human body, but also the ethical questions and implications behind scientific advances.  The intent behind the CSCG lines up with my belief in the necessity of the dialogue between science and society.  After Ursinus, I plan on pursuing an M.D. and going on to volunteer my future skills around the world in service.

My Research

My research is done with Dr. Rebecca Lyczak and focuses on how a single cell is able to develop into a functional, multi-cellular organism.  In particular, I study the formation of the anterior-posterior axis in a sample organism, the nematode C. elegans.
