I’m Elizabeth, a second-year Ph.D. student in Biological Engineering at MIT. I work in the lab of Professor Forest White, where I use mass spectrometry, proteomics, and systems biology to understand how cell signaling affects biological processes like immune function and resistance to cancer treatment.

​

Before grad school, I spent several years in science media and communication strategy. I developed the creative media strategy for MIT Undergraduate Admissions and researched communities of online learning for the MIT Media Lab's Learning Initiative. I developed program strategy, original web series development, teaching, and outreach programs for the MIT+K12 Videos Program at MIT Open Learning. 

​

I'm interested in the intersection between biotechnology and public engagement, movies related to outer space, hand lettering. Get in touch if you'd like to discuss any of the above!
