Hi, my name is Sabina. I completed my Ph.D. in a beautiful place in the south of France, Montpellier. I was raised in Baku (Azerbaijan), a city where different cultures meet. I love science and the feeling of satisfaction it gives when I think that every new discovery could potentially be important for humanity. I love reading classical literature, cooking, and spending time with my family in my free time.

Hi, my name is Susmit and I am in the Cell and Molecular Biology (CMB) program. I come from a coastal town in India called Alibag. I am excited about how a large cocktail of different chemicals work so intricately yet so beautifully to make up a living being. The brain, master regulator of this biological wonder called human body, helps all these chemical interactions make sense with perception and self-consciousness. I am excited to study the molecular processes in the brain and hope to find answers to questions in neuroscience and stem cell biology, yet unknown to us. When I am not in the lab, I am usually playing badminton or chess, working out, or playing the guitar.

Major:  Neurobiology

Lab member since 2022

My name is Olivia and I am an undergraduate majoring in Neurobiology. I have always had a love for science because it allows me to understand the world around me. It provides a sense of logic and order to some of the most complicated things. I am intrigued by the intersection of Neuroscience and genetics, particularly how genetics provide insights into neuronal diversity and functions. In my free time you can find me crocheting, indulging in “True Crime” podcasts/shows, listening to music, or taking care of my plants.
