This past summer, I participated in the MIT Summer Research Program in Biology (MSRP-Bio). I spent most of my time at MIT working in Dr. Laura Kiessling's lab, where I developed and tested chemical probes to study bacterial cell envelopes. I was grateful to learn about a wide variety of techniques in organic synthesis, biochemistry, and microbiology. MSRP-Bio also provided opportunities to meet professors, attend mini-conferences, and present our work.

Outside of the program, I enjoyed exploring Boston and relaxing with my cohort and lab mates. I am so glad I took this opportunity, and I highly recommend it!
