Plans
I would like to major in biophysics with a music minor. I am interested in mRNA research involving nanoparticles which may target blood disorders and cancer. Market Production will be essential to scale up production, possibly creating opportunities in health care, nanocomputing and nano-data storage. Sharing knowledge through media is the hallmark of all great societies. I want to embrace it all. Thank you
