Undergraduate Students
My name is Mainur Khan, and I am a 4th year undergrad majoring in Biology and Global Health. At the El Mallah Lab, I am involved in tissue analysis in multiple Pompe Disease projects, as well as creating literature reviews about PD. Outside the lab, I like to DJ and be outside!
My name is Sloane Mayman and I am an undergraduate student majoring in Neuroscience with a minor in Computational Biology. As a student researcher at ElMallah Lab, I engage in tissue studies and data analysis. Outside of the lab, I am interested in aerospace medicine and I love to hike
My name is Jane Lee, and I am a junior at Duke. I am majoring in biology and minoring in chemistry. I joined the ElMallah lab in the fall of my freshman year because of my interest in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, which I have been studying ever since. In my free time, I like to play sports, hike, and go to cafes.
My name is Elle Balle and I am a second-year undergraduate majoring in biology with a concentration in neurobiology and a minor in cultural anthropology. I study Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy in the lab and work on various projects with mice that analyze their response to novel AAV therapy. In my free time I love to read, explore nature, and try new restaurants/cuisines!
Dominick Angelone is an undergraduate at Duke University, majoring in Biology with intended minors in Neuroscience and Religious Studies. He is interested in the intersections of biology, chemistry, and medicine, with a focus on applications to human health. He is beginning training in research on amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) using the TDP-43 mouse model, with a developing focus on respiratory deficiencies, neuronal inflammation, neuronal degeneration, and behavioral effects.
Outside the lab, Dominick loves to read, go out to eat, go on excursions, and spend time with those he loves
