Research Interests
|
Lia received a B.A. in Cell and Molecular Biology from Barnard College, Columbia University. She investigated the stability of certain liposomes using NMR spectroscopy in a biophysics laboratory as an undergraduate student and examined synonymous codon bias across different organisms for her senior thesis project. Currently, she is interested in researching the pathogenesis of infectious diseases as well as identifying new targets for drug treatment. |
