Jason Hughes
Gradaute Student, Molecular Physiology and Biophysics
I graduated with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Maryland in Baltimore. I am currently a graduate student in the Molecular Physiology and Biophysics program. My research as an NIH ITED Training Grant and NSF predoctoral Fellow focuses on the quantitative understanding of transcription regulation in single cells. In my free time, I enjoy playing board games, breakdancing, playing musical instruments, and going to the symphony.
