Meet cell molecular biology major and science writing fellow Priyanka Shrijay ‘23. Priyanka is currently conducting research on a transcription factor and how it affects the development of intervertebral discs in mice. After she graduates, she hopes to apply her science background to service-oriented work, potentially in the realm of public health. "I think what really drew me to science is that it's a field that's really defined by questions. That makes the learning process particularly active which I really enjoy."—Priyanka Shrijay ‘23 #StudentsInStem #BarnardYearOfScience #StemInNYC #StemEducation
