Bianca is currently a research coordinator at the University of Washington (UW). I recently graduated from UW with a bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry. Alongside her work on the CADASIL study, she is also involved in multiple clinical studies in Parkinson’s and Huntington’s Disease. In the future, she plans to go to medical school after gaining a few more years of experience in research. During my downtime, she enjoys reading, spending quality time with her cat, and hiking around the Pacific Northwest.
