Bryce Small is a rising senior from Santa Ynez, California. He is majoring in biology with a focus in neurobiology. This summer, Bryce is conducting research on neurons to potentially classify a binding partner of MHC Class 1 that regulates neuronal projection outgrowth in Dr. Martinez’s lab. He is very interested in the clinical and pharmacological implications of research and plans to pursue medical school after graduation. Beyond science, Bryce plays club water polo for Stanford and is minoring in art.
