My Experience as a G.A.T.O.Rpicture of Brittany 

       

    I’m Brittany Darragh, an undergraduate at the University of Florida currently studying Biochemistry with a minor in Business Administration. I am also a participant of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute G.A.T.O.R Program. My mentor  is Barbara Smith and my peer undergraduate is Sara Attia. The three of us work in the Martin Lab in the Physical Therapy Department of Shands where our work centers around the function of muscle, specifically inspiratory and lower extremity muscles.
