Jane Wu is a third-year student studying Neuroscience and Global health at Washington University in St. Louis. She first conducted medicinal organic chemistry research with Dr. Edward Njoo in 2022 and presented at the American Chemical Society conference. In 2023, she joined Dr. Jacob McPherson’s research group at the WashU School of Medicine, where her focus shifted to pain, plasticity, and recovery of function through electrophysiology and monoamine neurotransmitters. After graduation, she hopes to pursue an MD-PhD and continue investigating neural circuitry that combines molecular and systems approaches to sensation and perception.
