Who we are
Our team of six rising-sophomore undergraduates works under the support
of the Isaacs Lab at Yale, graduate student mentors, and an undergraduate board. Blending experience in synthetic biology,
computer & data science, and web development, we strive to bring together diverse perspectives towards our goal of
producing pathways for equol-based therapeutics.
