About Me
Hi! My name is Mahta and I study Microbiology and Immunology. I developed a deep interest in research during high school and I had the opportunity to get involved with a lab at UBC. By shadowing graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, I was inspired to further pursue research in my undergrad, which is why I also chose the major I am in.
Throughout the years, I have gained many valuable experiences and I look forward to helping more students get involved with research! In my free time, I love listening to music, going to museums, and biking!
How did I first get into research?
I initially got into research by looking at different supervisors in the area I was interested in and reading about what their lab was involved with. From there, I contacted the supervisor to see what opportunities they had available.
