Corynne
Graduate Student
Ph D. Candidate, Molecular and Cellular Biology
Corynne is a sixth-year PhD student in the Molecular and Cellular Biology, and she is excited to kick off her fourth year working for the writing center. She obtained her BS in chemistry and biology from Saint Michael’s College, a small liberal arts school in Vermont. During her undergraduate years, she interned at Green Mountain Antibodies, a small company where she gained much of her technical skill prior to graduate school. Her doctoral thesis explores how proteins interact and assemble into viruses. Away from the lab, she loves running and adventuring in the great outdoors. She can often be found enjoying farm life, petting donkeys and goats, and tracking down mischief chickens.
