Hi, my name is Jorge and I am from Lima Peru. Most of my academic experience is related to Biomedical sciences, in the fields of Molecular Biology, Genetics, Biochemistry, Cell Biology and development. During my PhD, I had a proactive role organizing scientific symposiums and retreats. This trained my presentation skills to share my research in important scientific meetings in the US: I won best poster award at the Gordon Research Conference (GRC) in 2022 and was an invited speaker at Cold Spring Harbor meeting in 2023, among others. Besides my research experience, I have a strong commitment to improve higher education in STEM. Since 2020, I co-direct the Research Experience for Peruvian Undergrads (REPU) program, that provides international scientific internships to Peruvian undergrads in top universities in the US and Europe. I have the chance to mentor undergards in STEM. Additionally, I am a native Spanish speaker, which allowed me to give Spanish lessons to some students in the USA. I want to use my best of my abilities to support students and build a career for myself in Education.

This isn't Katie's core subject — her degrees are in biomedical and biological engineering from Cornell, and her teaching load leans heavily toward STEM, history, and English.
