Graduate Fellow
I am a senior graduate student in Todd Evans' lab in the Department of Surgery; and I am in the Physiology, Biophysics, and Systems Biology (PBSB) program at Weill Cornell Graduate School. My research work involves the use of mouse embryonic stem cells and manipulation of GATA factors to derive cardiac myocytes, and identifying and studying pathways that would promote commitment to different cardiac cell fates, specifically atrial or ventricular cells. I am originally from Minnesota, and received my BS degree in Biomedical Engineering, with a focus in biomaterials and tissue engineering, from the University of Wisconsin - Madison.
