Hi, I’m Natsumi, a third year student and very excited to be the Biology Track Rep this year 🙂 I have taken most of the courses in this track (both Physiology and Molecular Cell Biology) and have very much enjoyed them! I hope that I will be able to help make biology in general and these courses as fun and meaningful as they are/were for me, so if you have any questions (about course selection, study tips) or suggestions, or just want a chat, definitely feel free to reach out—I’m more than excited to be there for you! :))

Hi! I’m Helena and I’m a third year student majoring in Cognitive Neuroscience and Psychology. After UCU, I’m interested in pursuing research in neuroscience.
This year as your track representative in Cognitive Neuroscience, I want to bring the neuroscience community on campus closer and provide you directly with the tools you need to reach out to me and/or the fellow with any questions. I have plenty of experience with curriculum planning, especially for those considering going on exchange, so I would also like to help you with everything I’ve learned. I am always happy to answer any questions, listen to your feedback on the track, or just chat! I’m looking forward to seeing you all on campus:)
