Eric Xing
Hello! I am a sophomore interested in majoring in Biochemistry and Mathematics. I am working on studying left-handed G-quadruplexes and their ability to interact with ligands. In my free time, you might see me running with the cross country and track teams or enjoying a hearty meal at Sharples Dining Hall.
Andrew Hendrickson
I am a junior majoring in Biochemistry and minoring in English Literature. Along with some of my labmates, I have been studying left-handed and left/right-hybrid G-Quadruplex structures. Outside of the lab, you can find me practicing for the Swarthmore Varsity Swim Team or reading in Cornell Library.
Hannah Swale
Hi! I am a senior majoring in Biochemistry with a minor in Psychology. In the lab, I am working on characterizing the interactions of small-molecule ligands and G-Quadruplexes. Outside of the lab, I am a member of the track and field team and enjoy studying with friends or walking in the Crum.
Jennifer Zhao
Hi! I'm a sophomore interested in majoring in Biochemistry. In lab, I currently studying five tetrad G4 structures and imotif structures. If you ever catch me outside of work, you might find me reading, writing, or just listening to music.
Katleo Pule
Hi, I am a junior studying two-motif left handed G4 sequences. In my free time, I love traveling and watching soccer. I have recently started learning how to bake and will be doing that more often.
Joseph Eyiolowope
Hi everyone! I am a pre-med senior majoring in Neuroscience. I am working on studying the characterization of Five Tetrad G-quadruplexes and their ability to interact with ligands. In my free time, I like to play a lot of soccer, travel, and give back to the community.
Emily Sun
Hi! I am a junior majoring in Neuroscience. I am working on completing biophysical characterizations of five tetrad G-quadruplexes and studying different structures. Outside the lab, I enjoy playing volleyball, cooking, or going on walks outside.
Erin Coyle
Hi! I am a Sophomore interested in majoring in Biochemistry and Anthropology. I am currently working on the biophysical characterization of left-handed G-quadruplexes in solution with ligands. When I’m not in the lab you may find me on the Field Hockey field or enjoying a nice treat from the ville!
Sarah Fofana
Hi, I am a rising high school junior interested in pharmacogenomics and biochemical engineering. I go to George Washington Carver High School of Engineering and Science. This summer, I'm working in the Yatsunyk Lab, where I'm learning biochemical and biophysical techniques including running gels, crystallizing, and performing Job plots to help identify and characterize non-standard DNA structures. In my free time, you’ll find me reading a Khaled Hosseini book or drinking iced matcha
