Hello! My name is Jimmy Dinh, and I am currently majoring in Biological Sciences and pursuing a minor in Public Health. I joined the Beier lab during my second year to obtain hands-on experience working in the lab and gain more insight into the role of scientific research in addressing global health problems, such as neurodegenerative diseases. I plan to become a dentist in the future, and although this research is not directly related to dentistry, I hope that my work in the lab will help me become a better scientist and problem-solver. When I’m not studying or meticulously counting cells, I enjoy discovering new music, graphic designing, and listening to true crime podcasts.
