Our Interns
University of Pennsylvania senior Phoenix Garcia-Ramos has always been fascinated by science. They recall being a middle school student in the inner city of Philadelphia and wanting to learn more about weather cycles. So, it was only fitting that Phoenix went on to attend a science and engineering high school. Today, they’re majoring in neuroscience at UPenn.
