My name is Amber Ying, and I was a compound manager for Biogen who also operated really cool robots to create assay-ready plates for drug discovery.
I have a Master's of Liberal Arts in Biology from Harvard Extension School. For my thesis, I mapped the locations of astroglia with internalized OTX2 within the human amygdala. Other research interests include adult neuroregeneration and how glia are implicated in psychiatric conditions.
For now, I reside in Cambridge, Massachusetts with my spouse, John Towey and our child. My hobbies include crochet, table-top roleplaying games, and kickboxing.
I am a genderqueer non-binary woman and primarily use she/they pronouns.
By the way, I designed this website with Nova and Bootstrap. I am just that awesome.
