This is what I do on a typical Friday! I plan to write more “A Day in My Life” posts to give you a glimpse of what Caltech student’s daily lives are like.
8am - Donuts are provided every Friday morning by ASCIT, Caltech's student government.
9am - I have lab every Monday and Friday morning for my bioengineering/computer science class. We are currently constructing DNA logic circuits.
12:30pm - After lab, I went to barre class in Old Town Pasadena!
2pm - Post-barre Indian buffet with my mom! The food was delicious.
3pm - Picking up bread from a bakery in Old Town Pasadena before heading back to campus.
4pm - Manicures in Pasadena with my Caltech friend.
7pm - Dinner in Arcadia with (a different) Caltech friend.
Just last week, on an unassuming Thursday, the astro(physics) community got served two humongous cakes at once. Both the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) and the IceCube Neutrino Observatory (IceCube) have ground-breaking scientific findings to share with the class!
A friendly desert community where the sun is hot, the mountains are beautiful, and mysterious sounds echo between our walls while we don’t even pretend to sleep.
This summer I had the incredible opportunity to do a 10-week internship at Gilead Sciences in Foster City, CA. For those unfamiliar, Gilead Sciences, Inc. is a research-based biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of innovative medicines.
