Biography

Heineken's Bio

I’m a biochemistry major with a concentration on biochemical toxicology. I transferred to Rutgers from Bergen Community College, Paramus, NJ, with an Associate’s Degree in Natural Sciences and Mathematics. Cellular and molecular biology fascinates me a lot, which further drives me to pursue an advanced degree in such area. I am particularly interested in cancer research, including immunotherapy, and the biochemistry of neurological disorders specifically Alzheimer’s disease and brain tumors. I also have a passion for writing, be it fictional or academic and scientific writing.
