Kaitlyn joined the lab in September 2025 as a fourth-year undergraduate thesis student. She is a Biochemistry student completing the Biomedical Research Co-op Specialization with a concurrent certificate in Immunology, Microbiology, and Virology. When she is not in the lab, Kaitlyn enjoys going to the gym, travelling, reading, and listening to music.
My project focuses on purifying a drug target from Mycobacteria to screen a natural product library for compounds that inhibit its activity. These inhibitory compounds may serve as potential antibacterials.
