What does this experience mean to you and how is it connected to your career goals?

It is through this research opportunity I am not only building the necessary technical skills in order to be a computational biologist , but I am experiencing how interdisciplinary biology is by integrating mathematics and computer science to build data driven models. Big thank you to the biology faculty at CSUSM. I would not be where I am today if not for your continuous support.
