Name: Yael Day

Major: Neuroscience and minor in Chemistry

Hometown: Newton, MA

Key Bryn Mawr Experiences: 

  • Being a Traditions Mistress with Maggie Morris and planning campus-wide activities
  • Working with people as a TA for the Math Department and an HA in Rockefeller dorm
  • Securing funding from the Civic Engagement Center to conduct research for my summer internship

Post-graduation plans: I will be staying local and working at the Perelman School of Medicine in the University of Pennsylvania Neuroscience department. I am very excited to continue my research there and work in a lab full time!

People you want to thank: I want to thank all of my friends who have made my Bryn Mawr experience what it was! I also want to thank my parents for always encouraging me and my dean for being so supportive throughout my educational career.
