Learning about Rosalind Franklin, Photo 51, and the structure of DNA as a high schooler was the catalyst for my interest in biology and continues to inspire me today. The implications of genetic science, both positive and negative, show tremendous potential for changing the ways we think, act, and manipulate our environments; I want to be a part of that for the good.
