Jeremy Heit
UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCHER
Jeremy Heit grew up in Alpharetta, Georgia and moved to Atlanta as a Georgia Tech freshman in 2016 and travels to Lynbrook, NY to visit family. Currently, he is a Fourth Year undergraduate student studying Biomedical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology with a passion for human health. He has developed fluorescent biomarkers to study signaling pathway in V. cholerae in the school of Biological Sciences. He is interested in multiplexed single cell imaging of immune cells and engineering immune cells towards fighting cancer cells. After he receives a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering in Fall 2020, he hopes to apply to medical school and pursue an M.D in oncology or immunology. Outside of classes and lab he spends his free time climbing with friends, hiking, and spending time with family
Sam Henderson
UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCHER
Sam Henderson is currently a first year mechanical Mechanical Engineering student on the pre-med track at the Georgia Institute of Technology. He was born in Aberdeen, Scotland, and then moved to Houston, Texas, but went to boarding High School at St. Paul's School in Concord, New Hampshire. After his junior year, he participated in a summer internship at the Non-Invasive Brain-Machine laboratory at the University of Houston where he investigated, which regions of the brain correlated with creativity. Sam became interested in becoming a physician after reading medical books by Atul Gawande and is volunteering at the WellStar Atlanta Medical Center. In his free time, Sam likes reading, hanging out with friends, and hiking.
