Krishna Gajjar ’25
Krishna graduated with a bachelor’s degree in biochemistry and molecular biology.
“It wasn’t until later that I realized how big a deal it is to be able to do a fully independent project as an undergrad. I learned how to read scientific papers, design experiments, learn and execute techniques, and analyze and interpret results. I completely fell in love with research.”
