Graduate Students
Savannah Pierce
I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California and I am currently studying the secondary metabolites of Caulerpa spp. and several cyanobacteria with the goal of identifying novel molecules. When I’m out of the lab you can find me working out, practicing my guitar, and trying new recipes. I received my BS in Biological Sciences with an emphasis in Human Biology at University of California, Merced.
Akansha Jain
I was born and raised in the Bay Area and received my BS in Biochemistry from UOP in 2023. Some of my hobbies include traveling and spending time with my friends. I am currently pursuing my Masters at UOP in the Carlson Lab.
