Tiffany Tran

Hi everyone! My name is Tiffany Tran, and I am a Neuroscience Ph.D. candidate in Chunlei Liu’s lab at UC Berkeley. My project focuses on applying magnetogenetic techniques, where magnetic fields are applied to control cell activity, to astrocytes in order to investigate their role in neural circuits. Outside of research, I enjoy listening to music, hiking, bouldering, and cooking. I joined Beyond Academia to learn and spread awareness about the opportunities outside of academia and to support graduate students who are interested in pursuing these fields.
