About

Since Spring 2022, I have worked as an undergraduate intern in Dr. McLaughlins lab. While we work on various projects, our main goal is alwways related to alleviating the lack of knowledge surrounding substance abuse and addiction. In this lab, I am tasked with performing subcutaneous and intraperitoneal injections; setting up, organizing, and completing experimental trials; collecting and inputting lab data; and other various things.
