Anushka Kelshiker – Public Relations Chair
Hey everyone, my name is Anushka Kelshiker, a sophomore studying biomedical engineering. As the public relations chair for the SFB, I am passionate to explore the various solutions biomaterials can provide at the intersection of technology and healthcare. This year, I would love to advocate for increased biomaterials research, and provide students with the opportunities to present their work and get more involved in the field. Specifically, I hope to start researching about medical implants that can be used to replace or restore damaged tissues in the human body.
