Avery is an undergraduate at UNC Chapel Hill majoring in Neuroscience and minoring in Chemistry set to graduate in 2026. Her project studies the impact of n-terminus truncation of PL/SF mutant tau in HEK cell lines on levels of insoluble tau aggregates found in these cells. Outside of the lab, Avery loves to cheer on the Tarheels at football and baseball games, curl up with a good book, and play with her adorable dog Murphy.
