Exploration and Collaboration
We foster a community that promotes research, knowledge, and creativity in the classroom and the lab.
Caroline Bao SB '23
A really strong advantage of being here is that all the faculty are willing to mentor students. I worked in the Feng lab at the McGovern Institute looking at a mutation associated with autism. Then I wanted to work on something more closely tied to my majors in Computer Science and Biology, so I’m currently working in the Jain lab looking at repeat expansion disease cell line models. After graduating, I’ll be staying in the Jain lab and pursuing a Course 6 Masters of Engineering, and I’m planning on applying to medical school.
