Winnie received her undergraduate degree in Neuroscience with a Computer Science minor from Wellesley College. As an undergraduate researcher in the Marshall lab, she investigated the relationship between CK2 and extrasynaptic NR2B in Alzheimer's Disease, evaluating in vivo tau pathology models to recapitulate findings from in vitro studies.

Driven by her passion for bridging healthcare and technology, Winnie has pursued diverse research experiences at the intersection of these fields. She worked as a software engineering intern at Orbita, a healthcare technology company, where she developed a full-stack application integrated within their chat box engine. In Dr. Flanigan's lab at MUSC, she supported ongoing projects focused on machine learning approaches to quantifying behavioral data.

In the Miller lab, Winnie conducts cellular and molecular research including western blots, DNA isolation, mitochondrial assays to further understand the mechanisms underlying intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). Her work contributes to the lab's mission of advancing translational IVH research. 

Outside of the lab she enjoys reading, long walks, and spending time with friends and family. She plans to apply to MD/PhD programs next year.
