Before coming to MIT, I thought it was among the best places in the world to answer biological questions. Now, from the inside, I am sure it is. I’ll be sitting in a seminar, and realize the person next to me won a Nobel for discovering a phenomenon I have studied my entire academic life. I’ve found colleagues who share a passion for molecular life, and an interdisciplinary environment where science is the first priority. In the future, I aim to establish my own lab. Hopefully MIT Biology will take me there.
