Rhheaa Mehta

Undergraduate Mentor

Hello! I’m a senior neuroscience major on the premed track, with a chemistry minor and certificates in ASL and Global Health. My areas of interest are biology/neuroscience and medical sociology and ethics. Currently, I do basic wet lab research on rare neurodegenerative diseases under Dr. Udai Pandey. I am also an 2025 Undergraduate Fellow at the Humanities Center, doing a project on medical anthropology. I’m extremely passionate about making research experiences work for you rather than the other way around. My unique curiosity is in the role of science communication to the general public, and the importance of balancing what we research and how we research it.
