Danielle Serra
Biography
I am Danielle Serra and I am a PhD Candidate in the Garton Lab. I am working in the crossroads of synthetic biology and regenerative medicine to validate genetic tools to reliably engineer human stem cells. Specifically, this cutting and pasting of DNA, allows me to create synthetic genes where I validate promoter strength characteristics in iPSCs.
Aside from my academics, I am a mentor/instructor focused in synthetic biology awareness and pedagogy. In my free time find me curling for Team Mexico! 🥌
