Hi, I’m

Annuhlykha Golombeski

Charlottesville,VA

Summary

My passion for biology began with a personal medical diagnosis at a young age, sparking my curiosity about the human body and the importance of scientific research. This experience inspired me to major in Cellular and Molecular Biology to understand how molecular processes affect health and disease. Additionally, a minor in psychology deepened my interest in mental health, highlighting the need for a multidisciplinary approach to healthcare. I aim to combine biology, psychology, and medical research to develop innovative solutions that improve both physical and mental well-being, contributing to advancements in medicine and patient care.
