Shravanika Kumaran ‘25

Shravanika concentrates in Computational Biology and is minoring in Data Science and Infectious Biology. She is considering either pursuing graduate school or working in the Biotechnology industry after graduation! At Cornell, she is working in the Peters Lab to figure out the similarities between different transposon systems through microbiology wet lab work and build a phylogenetic tree of the diversity through computational methods. She is also a member of the Artistic Beads Club. Her favorite courses at Cornell have been BIOMG 2800,  BIOMG 2801, and BIOMS 4150 and for fun, Shravanika likes to do jigsaw puzzles, and try new recipes! This summer, she is going to conduct RNA research at New England Biolabs.

Her words of advice for new students

“I would say don’t worry about how your experience at Cornell is going to go before it starts because I found that things will fall in place, and you’ll find what interests you naturally as you explore the numerous options and opportunities. There are also a lot of places to get help and resources available, so definitely reach out! “
