Alexis L. Vanitski

I graduated from Rochester Institute of Technology in May 2020 with my bachelors in Biotechnology and Molecular Bioscience with a minor in International Relations. Presently I work at Regeneron Pharmaceuticals as a Biotech Production Specialist.

I chose biotechnology due to my interest in cancer diagnostics and treatment methods. Throughout my program I have also developed skills such as, cell and tissue culturing, CRISPR gene editing, chemical separation, microbiology, and various forms of chromatography.

Many people question the value of my minor in the context of my degree. Yet politics is very intertwined with the sciences, especially in research. As such I believe it is important to have some foundation of understanding in it.
