Carolyn graduated from UC Davis in 2017 with a Bachelors in Biomedical Engineering and joined Tian Lab in 2018. She is interested in the bioengineering side of biomedical engineering, and plans to do research on some aspect of cellular or tissue engineering.

Carolyn is excited for the opportunity to work with neurological research and in vivo imaging, and is currently working to develop fluorescent norepinephrine sensors with Tommaso, to optimize platforms for imaging mouse neuronal activity in vivo, and to image neurons in vitro using microfluidic devices.

Her hobbies include reading fantasy novels, deep sea fishing, and walking in the parks around Davis.
