Norah is currently a senior WISE honors student in Biomedical Engineering, specializing in the Biomechanics and Biomaterials track. She works in Dr. Enikolopov’s neurobiological lab on campus, studying the role of nitric oxide in regulating ciliary cell polarity, beat frequency, and directional flow in the brains of mice. Norah intends to pursue a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering next year.

Leanne is a junior in BME with a concentration in Cellular and Molecular Engineering. Working with Dr. Wei Yin and other students in her lab, Leanne works on an elderly fall prevention project. Additionally, Leanne is a Simons STEM Scholar, a member of Tau Beta Pi, and a CEAS Peer Mentor.

Anosuya is a senior undergraduate student in Biomedical Engineering on the pre-med track, with a concentration in cellular and tissue engineering. She is currently conducting research in Dr. Yin’s lab, where she investigates thrombosis in the right and left coronary arteries to support clinical decision-making for coronary artery blockages. This work also serves as the foundation for her Honors Thesis.

Andrew is a senior in Biomedical Engineering with interests in medical device design, prototyping, and applied research. He works in Dr. Yin’s lab, where he has contributed to projects including a fall-prevention device with an active intellectual property filing, a low-cost CO₂ monitoring system for medical use in Africa, and an expandable ECMO dilator for improved clinical procedures. He has also researched coagulation detection methods and presented his work at the NYC Innovation Hot Spot Network Meeting.
