Jasmine brings a rare and wonderful combination of deep expertise in both mathematical and molecular immunology to her projects. She is co-advised by Prof. Jess Metcalf. Immediately upon arrival, Jasmine launched an exciting collaborative project on the immunology and energetics of lactation with Prof. Ai Ing Lim AND adopted a lively pup, so it seems there will never be a dull moment in grad school for her.
