I am Course 20 and work in the Lauffenburger Lab at MIT. I learned about OpenWetWare from the Undergraduate BE Board wiki, and from 20.109(S08).

Originally I'm from [Big Rapids, Michigan] and am very happy to be in Boston. I play oboe in the MIT Wind Ensemble, and am stoked that an oboe was featured in a [superbowl commercial] this year. I also volunteer at MIT [blood drives] because my iron level is too low to donate. Golfing, dancing, and baking are pretty high on my priority list.

My UROP grad student is looking into RT-PCR and other aspects of this class, so I'm excited to parallel my work with 20.109. I'm stoked to learn more BE stuff.
