Bri Hofman '27, a double major in Cell & Molecular Biology and Music, has been awarded a Van Andel Student Summer Research Fellowship for Summer 2025. Bri says, "Through the Van Andel Institute undergraduate internship program, I will have the opportunity to complete high-level research and learn new techniques in an emerging field in science. I will be working with one of their neurodegenerative disease labs to investigate what causes neuronal cells to shut down or act irregularly. I am incredibly excited to be surrounded by brilliant minds working together to discover more about diseases that affect so many in detrimental ways."
Van Andel Student Summer Research Fellowships are designed to provide undergraduate college students opportunities to be mentored by professionals in their chosen research field, to become familiar with the use of state-of-the-art scientific equipment and technology, and to learn valuable interpersonal and presentation skills. The goal of this program is to expose aspiring researchers and clinicians to exciting advances in biomedical sciences that will help define their career paths.
