I am a junior year dual degree Bioinformatics student in Zhejiang University and the University of Edinburgh. My research interest is in computational simulation and profiling of B-cell antibody repertoire. I love music, traveling and reading.
I am an undergraduate Computational and Systems Biology student currently analyzing chromatin-associated RNA data to determine how initiation rate is affected by prior conditioning.
I am an undergraduate student studying Molecular, Cell, and Developmental Biology. My research involves using mathematical modeling to simulate and interpret B-cell phylogeny.
I am a second year UCLA student studying Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics (MIMG). My research involves studying NFkB and MAPK activity in macrophages.
I am a second-year undergraduate studying Computer Science, planning on minoring in either Mathematics or Digital Humanities. My work in the Signaling Systems Lab concentrates on using convolutional neural networks to segment electron microscopy images of B-cells.
My name is Jace Gentry, a senior at UCLA. I’m majoring in Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics, with a minor in Biomedical Research. I am deeply passionate about the intricacies of the human body and my academic pursuits reflect this interest. Outside the classroom, I’ve honed my practical skills as a phlebotomist, gaining invaluable hands-on experience in the medical field. Balancing the scientific and the artistic, I also play the bass in my spare time, a hobby that provides a counterpoint to my scientific pursuits. Looking ahead, I aspire to apply my passion and skills in the medical field, with my sights set on medical school. My ultimate goal is to specialize in Cardiothoracic or Orthopedic Surgery, where I can make a significant difference in patients’ lives.
I am a sophomore studying Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics. My research involves using ordinary differential equations (ODEs) in Matlab to model NF-κB signaling dynamics in macrophages.
I am a junior studying Computational and Systems Biology. My research currently focuses on understanding how inflammaging affects hematopoiesis by identifying differences in differentially expressed genes with the IκB KO model.
I am an undergraduate researcher who is studying trained immunity primarily with LPS activation of macrophages and their ability to change T-Cell expression.
