Keira Nakamura

I am an undergraduate from San Francisco, majoring in Biology. 

My research focuses on social development based on early-life isolation and how this affects microRNA expression. I aim to determine how certain microRNAs correlate to poison frog tadpoles exhibiting either aggressive or non-aggressive behavior depending on the social environment.

In my free time, I enjoy crocheting, reading, gardening, and spending time with my tortoise, Thunder.
