Senior, UMass Amherst and Project Onramp Intern
Judy Luu is a rising senior at the University of Massachusetts Amherst (UMass) majoring in psychology and neuroscience. Judy is a first-generation college student and is from Quincy, Massachusetts. At UMass, Judy works as an Undergraduate Research Assistant in a neuroscience lab where she is studying sex differences in the noradrenergic system in rats. She has also worked in a developmental psychology lab in the past, studying the effects of gender bias on young children. In addition, Judy works as a group tutor on campus, providing academic support for students. Last summer, she interned at Biogen in the Human Resources department as a Research and Development Learning Intern. She is back at Biogen this summer, and is very excited to be interning in the Community Lab, a place where she can combine her passion for science with mentorship. After graduation, Judy plans to work in the biotechnology industry for a few years before heading off to graduate school. Her ultimate dream is to receive her doctorate degree in a neuroscience-related field to better the lives of other people through science research and education.
