Michelle

Personal Statement

Michelle is a PhD student in Computational Neuroscience at the University of Chicago studying learning and memory in the brain. Prior to pursuing her PhD, she got her bachelors in Astrophysics from Brown University and Masters in Beam and Accelerator Physics from the US Particle Accelerator School – Indiana University. She did this while working as a theoretical neuroscience researcher in the Zuckerman Institute at Columbia University prior to graduate school. Michelle is passionate about all STEM topics and loves sharing that passion with her students - just ask her a question about the brain or the universe and she will happily ramble about their complexities. She takes a personalized approach to each student based on their interests and needs, whether they want to explore a topic of their own interest or they need to prepare for an upcoming exam. She enjoys building a one-on-one rapport with each student and fostering that relationship across the student’s academic career. This often includes exposing the student to subfields that they may not have known existed but help enliven their own passions and confidence.
