September 24, 2024

Avery was an undergraduate at UNC Chapel Hill majoring in Neuroscience and minoring in Chemistry, who graduated in 2026. Her project studied 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. Avery will be continuing her studies in the UNC Biological and Biomedical Sciences Program! 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.
