A shot to learn about vaccine development
There’s a reason why chemical engineering major Sophia Mayone ’21 became interested in science at a young age.
“My youngest brother was born with a chronic illness,” she says. “I was eight years old, but started asking questions about biology, cells, genes, and why he had this disease.
“Because I started asking those types of questions early in life, I feel like it stuck with me. My interest in science, technology, and studying diseases grew from there.”
