    • Current Plan/Goal:I am currently an undergraduate student at University of Pittsburgh with a double major in Neuroscience and Psychology. After I graduate, I plan to pursue a M.D. degree and eventually specialize in Psychiatry. I applied to work in this lab because I am fascinated by the complexity of psychological disorders and want to learn more about research in the psychiatric field. In the lab, I work mainly with researchers on IPSCs and HSV I drug testing. I am also working to generate data for a thesis paper to fulfill the writing requirement for my undergraduate degree in Neuroscience.
