Hi! My name is Pooja Verma, and I’m from LaPorte, Indiana. I’m currently a sophomore majoring in Biomedical Health Sciences with a Pre-Medical Concentration and a minor in Management. This is my first year as a Research Assistant for ARISE Lab, but I’m looking forward to expanding my knowledge through the Multiracial Families Study while advancing my research skills! In my free time, I enjoy reading, spending time with my family, and travelling.
