My name is Cao Son Trinh, I was born and raised in Vietnam. I graduated from the University of Science and Technology of Hanoi with a bachelor's degree in Biotechnology and Pharmacology in 2014. After one and a half years of serving in the Vietnamese military, I started my Ph.D. journey in Plant Biotechnology in 2016 at Korea University, Seoul, Korea, and graduated in 2021.

I graduated from the University of California, Irvine, in 2024 with a B.S. in Biology. During that time, I worked in Dr. Marcus Seldin's lab, researching the role of novel proteins in cross-tissue interactions using systems genetics approaches. My interests are in epigenomics and proteomics. At Carnegie Science, I hope to grow as a researcher and make valuable contributions to addressing biological challenges.

My name is Daniel. I am a junior in high school. In college, I plan to major in Biomedical Engineering or Biology. Some of my hobbies are playing the piano, growing Satsuma oranges with my Mom, and being in the USABO and Biology Club. I am volunteering as a research lab intern for this summer. I want to learn how to do research in a laboratory setting.
