A bit more about us...
Noah Young is a dashing young battle-hardened Junior in Biomedical Engineering and Applied Mathematics who enjoys finding eigenvalues, sketching quasi-instantaneous current voltage relations for fictional ion channels, and programming robots to takes jobs away from hard-working graduate students. In his free time he studies neural stem cells in microfluidic devices and helps manage a $100,000 endowment portfolio.
Justin Porter is a Biophysics major of Junior standing who hails from Seattle, Washington. His research interests are primarily in computational protein structure prediction and design, but he takes breaks to visit the wet lab when he participates in iGEM. When he’s not too busy, he enjoys Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, making hummus, long walks on the beach, and silently scaling the rain-slicked walls of ancient Japanese fortresses in the dead of night.
Daniel Wolozny is a Junior Chemical and Biomolecular Engineer from Honduras. Yes, Honduras, that little piece of land that connects North and South America. His research interests range from introducing genes, Bclxl and Bclxl2 to make mammalian cells resistant to apoptosis to learning new laboratory techniques. He has two favorite hobbies, horseback riding through the forests of the homeland and attempting to take the lessons learned in lab into the kitchen setting, with mixed results.
Ang “Andy” Tu is a sophomore Biomedical Engineering major from Southern California. After working two years in a immunology lab as a high school student, he joined Dr. Jon Schneck’s pathology lab where he is currently involved with the development of artificial antigen presenting cells for immunotherapy purposes. Though usually quiet and reserved, Andy occasionally surprises those around him with dashes of high-spirited energy and unbelievably inappropriate jokes.
Arjun Karkhar is a sophomore in the biomedical engineering department. He has done research cardiomyocyte monolayer growth, birth simulator design & birth mechanics research, and designing and testing genetic switches. He enjoys dancing, painting, cooking, social infrastructure development and science fiction. He wants to be a chef if he grows up.
Roberto Passaro is a junior Chemical and Biomolecular Engineer who weathered the hazards of Westchester, New York for over 18 years before finding his way to Johns Hopkins. He studies the flow and diffusion of nanoparticles through microfluidic devices. His free time is predominately spent playing guitar and wooing women.
Andrew Snavely is a junior pursuing majors in Cellular and Molecular Biology and Neuroscience. His research interests include expression of olfactory receptors in heterologues cells and the genetic control of the epithelial to mesenchymal transition in cancer cell lines. In his spare time, he enjoys backpacking and scuba diving.
Kristin Boulier is a sophomore Cellular and Molecular Biology major from Annapolis, Maryland. She enjoys playing with DNA, parasites (a problem excaberated by her summer in a malaria lab), cooking and playing soccer.
