LAUREN (AVENIA) DANRIDGE
Graduated cum laude with a Psychology major, a minor in Biology and the Biopsychology Honors track of the University Honors Program (and actually took all the courses for the Humanities track but did not complete the thesis).
Currently working as a Program Assistant in the Department of Cell Biology and Molecular Medicine at UMDNJ, NJMS (Newark). Her job includes writing animal protocols and editing and submitting grants, manuscripts and peer reviews. She recently completed a Clinical Research Associate certification and has plans to enter the field of medical writing. Her research background made it possible to be the person in charge of all departmental animal protocols, affording her the opportunity to gain the experience of originating the content of the protocols. She feels this experience will serve her well as she continues on in her career development.
