Kyle C. Tucker
Co-Student Director
Brohawn Lab

 I was born and raised in Los Angeles, CA but I’ve lived on the East Coast, and Mountain West. I’m a 4th year graduate student in the Brohawn lab studying protein engineering of channel rhodopsins, but I’m also passionate about mitochondria! I love learning about the complexities of culture, race, inequity, economics, global history and art.

michellereid@berkeley.edu

I was born and raised in Los Angeles, CA and am a 4th year graduate student that studies the structure of membrane transporters and channels relevant to neurobiology. I come from a Mexican and Filipino background and I am a full participant of both of my cultures. I care deeply/love to learn about issues regarding poverty, disability, feminism, access to higher education, environmental racism, climate change, science education, policy, race, culture, and immigration.
