UVA Biology People Amanda Briegel

Amanda Briegel

I am a third year Biology B.S. major with a minor in astronomy. After graduating from UVA, I plan to attend graduate school to earn a Masters and PhD in immunology. Ultimately, I would like to do research on experimental immunotherapies of cancer. In addition to Peer Teaching, I work as a research assistant in the Medical School and I volunteer at the CASPCA. Peer Teaching was the perfect opportunity for me to combine two of my passions: biology and tutoring other students. Working with student is one of the highlights of my week.
