He is an integral member of the newly-founded Junior Foundation Board, HOSA, head attorney for the Mock Trial, and founder of the Psychology and Neuroscience Club. Additionally, he is captain of the JV tennis team and has gone to state for Mock Trial. He is currently writing for a student-founded STEM magazine and conducting transit confirmation research of KOI 6842345, an exoplanet discovered by the Kepler telescope. During his free time, he enjoys reading and drawing.<\/p><p style=\"top:429px;left:45px;text-align:initial;font-weight:300;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;font-family:Poppins;color:#000000;width:750px;font-size:16px;line-height:20px;white-space:normal;\" class=\"ls-l ls-text-layer\" data-ls=\"showinfo:1;fadein:false;position:relative;\">Chinmay is ecstatic about engaging in the Advanced Medical Neuroscience Internship this summer, although he would have looked forward to the discussion and hands on learning that come with being in-person. He loves neuroscience and psychology but isn't quite sure what he wants to be yet. He hopes this opportunity will help him learn through research and provide him with insight that he might not have had before into the admissions process and the field of medical neuroscience.<\/p><a
