Honors and Awards: NIH Ruth L. Kirschstein Predoctoral Individual National Research Service Award (F31) (2018-21)
Favorite Aspects of Graduate Studies: "The best part of my graduate school experience at Scripps was having the opportunity to work and form friendships with such an amazing and talented community of scientists."
Next Steps: "After graduation, I began working as a scientist at Boundless Bio, where we aim to understand and target extrachromosomal DNA species in order to develop novel chemotherapeutics."
Be sure to join us at 10 a.m. PDT on Friday, May 21 for our Virtual Commencement Ceremony! Loe's advisor and mentor, Prof. Eros Lazzerini Denchi, will deliver a few words about her graduate experience (as will Loe), and viewers can learn about our 41 other 2021 graduates, who are now setting out to build careers that will impact the future of biomedical research.
