Hi Davenport! My name is Sindhura, I’m a first year PhD student in the department of Immunology and a Davenport alum! I grew up in the suburbs outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and I came to Yale in 2019 for undergrad. Originally class of 2023, I took a gap year around pandemic times, so I graduated in May 2024 from the BS/MS program in MB&B (DC ‘23+1).
For my PhD, I’m primarily interested in studying genetic autoimmune and autoinflammatory diseases. Outside of the lab, I love traveling, being outdoors, and eating lots of food. I’m an avid mountaineer and runner, and am currently training to climb the Matterhorn!
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about Yale, MB&B, grad school, science, or New Haven! Always down to chat over a coffee :)
