Mimi is a 4th year Biochemistry student at UBC currently on her co-op term. She is fascinated by the intricacies of the human body and hopes to pursue a career in healthcare. By working with APEL, she hopes to gain insight into the frontiers of clinical research and witness firsthand how molecular techniques are utilized to examine various effects on human physiology.

Outside of the lab, Mimi loves reading, painting, and exploring the dessert scene around the lower mainland. She has a major sweet tooth (loves crème brûlée!) and would always welcome new dessert recommendations.
