- Graduate Student
- MCDB
Josh hails from the San Francisco Bay Area, where he grew up, went to school, and worked before moving to Japan for two years to teach English and reconnect with that part of his background. He is currently a PhD student in both the Niswander lab and Knight labs at CU. In the Niswander lab he is pursuing potential genetic causes of neural tube defects. In the Knight lab he is planning to examine the effects of a new Course-based Undergraduate Research Experience (CURE) on students' sense of belonging, relationships with instructors, and outcomes in science. For fun, he enjoys photography, playing taiko, running, and eating.
