Ada Chen

Hi! My name is Ada Chen and I am third year Pharmaceutical Sciences Major. In my free time I like to crochet, watch shows and read. However my favorite thing to do with my friends is to explore new cafes and restaurants in the SoCal area since I am originally from the Bay Area!  I also like listening to all types of music so if you ever have any recommendations please let me know! I look forward to being a mentor this year!

I am a SoCal native and an incoming third year undergraduate student who is double majoring in Pharmaceutical Sciences and Computer Science. I plan to pursue a PhD in computational biology or chemistry and hope to apply my skills in the pharmaceutical industry in the future. My research interests lie in bioinformatics, drug discovery, vaccine development, molecular property prediction using machine learning, and single cell RNA sequencing. I enjoy crocheting, playing video games (TFT, Terraria, Stardew Valley), watching anime, and exploring new food locations with family and friends.

Hi, my name is Hilary and I'm a third year pharmsci major. I'm from Chino Hills and I was in marching band in high school, so because of that I also joined the pep band here. During my free time I sometimes like driving around and exploring places that I think look interesting. After graduation I plan on going to pharmacy school, and I'm really anticipating being a mentor this year. :)
