Who we are
The Team
 | Mark is a computer science and biochemistry student at the University of Maryland. He is interested in software development, particularly with respect to application tools for the research sciences and social media. His other interests include data visualization, scientific futurism, skeptical inquiry, and kittens. D'aw, kittens. He will graduate in 2012 and be pursuing a career in software development. |
 | Mandy is a rising junior at the University of Maryland, College Park. She is studying bioengineering with a concentration in drug discovery and delivery. During the school year she works in the Neuromuscular Bioengineering Lab as a researcher and at the Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center as a bartender. She is the Recruitment Chair for the Society of Bioengineers and an active member of Alpha Omega Epsilon, the engineering sorority. She participates as a Engineering School Ambassador and as a Honors College Ambassador in her spare time, of which she admittedly has very little. When not studying or engaged in academic activities, she plays club field hockey and enjoys napping. Following graduation she will either attend graduate school for biomedical engineering, pursue a career in professional engineering, or earn an MBA and go into industry. She'll be sure to let you know once she figures it out. Cheers. |
 | Adam Grose is in his senior year at Bluefield State College in Bluefield, WV as a Biology major. His aspiration is to attend graduate school in the medical field after graduation in Spring 2012; his interests include microbiology and physiology. He is an automotive enthusiast, enjoys spending time with his family, and likes taking his dog, Cody, for a swim. |
 | Swetha is a Biology and Premedical studies student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She is interested in biomedical research, particularly in the fields of pharmacology and signal transduction pathways. She is also interested in international affairs and diplomacy. She will graduate in 2014 and will, hopefully, be attending medical school thereafter. |
 | Brittany Nicole Harwell
like: Brittany Murphy and Brittany Snow
NOT like: Britney Spears interests/hobbies: knitting, baking, playing Angry Birds, hiking, hot air ballooning, storm chasing, long walks on the beach, levitating. I also enjoy playing field hockey and ping pong. I played field hockey for about 10 years up until college. I still play ping pong, but now everyone always steals my ping pong balls. |
 | Judith is a french engineering student, specialized in maths and computer science. The main subjects of her academic curriculum are statistics and numerical optimization. She is interested in computer simulation of physical systems. Next year, she will go to the University of Lausanne ( Switzerland ), to enhance her knowledge in this area. |
 | Meghan is a rising junior at Virginia Tech. She is working towards her degree in Biology with a possible Microbiology and Immunology concentration. Following her graduation in 2013, Meghan is considering pursuing a career in medicine and plans on attending medical school . Her other interests include nutrition, biomedical research, and physical therapy. Apart from her academic endeavors, Meghan enjoys running and camping. |
 | Hayley is a biotechnology and pre-pharmacy student at James Madison University. She's interested in biomedical research, drug development, and genetic engineering. She currently is doing dengue virus surface protein undergraduate research at JMU. She as an interest in Japanese language and culture and has studied abroad at Keio University in Tokyo. She will be graduating in 2012 and hopes to possibly continuing her education and maybe work in developing new biopharmaceuticals in the future. |
 | Loran is currently studying to complete her B.S. in Honors in Biochemistry at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. She is interested in the health field applications of stem cell research, genetic engineering, and drug research. She also currently enjoys reading Nietzsche, playing Shadow of the Colossus, and feeding ducks in her spare time. She expects to graduate in 2013, and to continue her education roughly along the lines of how humans function at a molecular level. |
 | Daniel is a rising senior studying biology and math at The College of William & Mary. He is interested in synthetic biology, self-organizing systems, and any efforts to leverage the elegance and power of natural systems to improve human engineering and design. His other interests include rock climbing, meditating, exploring the intersection of science and art, and reading The Onion. After he graduates in 2012, he plans to attend graduate school to study synthetic biology. |
