Ivan is an undergraduate currently studying biochemistry at UW who is passionate about clinical application. He joined the lab in 2022 and works mostly with the SGE team. Intrigued by molecular biology, Ivan can be frequently found working with senior scientists around the lab as well as making progress towards his own projects. Outside the lab, Ivan tries his best to not stress too much about coursework and can be frequently found watching the birds around campus or embracing his musical side on the piano (let him know if you need a pianist)!
