We met as high school sophomores through a research program, and we soon realized our shared passion for public health and research. Since then, we have had the privilege of presenting our interdisciplinary research at multiple conferences. Through these experiences, we gained familiarity with the process of research and how to effectively convey our findings to others. Individually, we have also participated in research competitions throughout high school and middle school as well. We look forward to mentoring and teaching this year's student researchers!
