Undergraduate Researcher
Hey! I’m Danny (He/Him). I’m a senior at UW studying biology with an emphasis in physiology. In the past, I’ve done some work at Friday Harbor Labs studying the behavior of ctenophores, as well as studied the connection between PTSD and the gut microbiome while interning at a microbiome lab. I’m very excited to be a part of the Wang lab as I’m fascinated by the biochemical and behavioral mechanisms of senescence and its evolutionary implications. Outside of school, I enjoy cooking, reading books, and long-distance running.
