The summer after my freshman year, I worked in Dr. Sui Huang鈥檚 cell and developmental biology lab and in the summer after my sophomore year, I did a Summer Undergraduate Research Grant in Dr. Amato鈥檚 lab at 澳彩全年历史图库, where I researched the relationship between the gut microbiome, pregnancy, and inflammation in women from Cebu, Philippines.”
