I am a second year undergraduate at Harvard College, concentrating in either Molecular and Cellular Biology or Evolutionary Biology. I was on the Harvard iGEM Team in 2009, and will be taking Biophysics 101 this fall. I learned about OpenWetWare through these two great research opportunities.

I'm really excited about the interdisciplinary nature of Biophysics 101. I've done some wet lab work here and there in high school and as an undergraduate, but never have I been exposed to the more quantitative tools in biology, such as programming, etc... which have proven to be quite useful over the past couple of decades and has helped in the ever evolving nature of biological research. Overall I hope that this cute hodge-podge milieu will allow us to extract the maximum amount of learning possible.
