I am a junior and am majoring in Neuroscience. I have always been fascinated with working in a research lab, and decided to come to Wellesley, which would give me the opportunity to fully engage in scientific research. I joined Professor Tetel’s lab in the spring of my first year, and I hope to continue working in this lab throughout my undergraduate years. After graduating from Wellesley, I plan to pursue an MD-PhD degree and be engaged in a field that involves both medicine and research.

Our lab is currently collaborating with Angelo Poletti (University of Milano), Larry Denner (UTMB) and Drew Webb (Wellesley) to study the role of a dihydrotestosterone metabolite, 3beta-A-diol, and coactivators in activating ER beta signaling to inhibit cell migration of prostate cancer cells.

This past summer I traveled to Kathmandu, Nepal, along with three other Wellesley students, to volunteer at Kanti Children’s Hospital, the only pediatric hospital in the country. Visit here to see our photos!
