<p style:"text-align:justify;font-size:100pt;">I’m a junior in Chemical Engineering with a Biomolecular concentration. My interest in chemistry is what initially drew me to this field, but I find the various biological applications the most engaging. (After all, the intricacies of the genetic code beat steam tables any day). To me, iGEM is a new and exciting way to connect with the scientific community on a global scale, something I see myself continuing to do as I work towards a career in research.</p> | <p style:"text-align:justify;font-size:100pt;">I’m a junior in Chemical Engineering with a Biomolecular concentration.

Hi! My name is Akshitha Yarrabothula and I'm a Senior in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering from Birmingham, AL. After graduation, I hope to one day attend medical school and pursue my passion of science, research, medicine, and people. Through iGEM, I hope to gain valuable experiences that will not only broaden my appreciation of research and creativity but will also prepare me for the years ahead! | Hi!

| - | + | I am a senior at Powell High School working with the UTK iGEM team through UT's Pre-Collegiate Research Scholar's Program. PCRSP has given me the great opprotunity to get involved in a field of research I'm interested in for the summer, fall, and spring semesters at UT in addition to my high school classes, allowing me not only to broaden my horizons but also to get a taste of the type of work I could be doing later down the road. I thoroughly enjoy my time in the lab and look forward to learning even more as I continue work with iGEM. | |
