Kate Higgins

Weng & Gehring Labs

I’m an enthusiastic runner and reader, and occasional painter. I’m also an MD/PhD student and I volunteer in a local clinic.

Early in my training, I had a very productive conversation with a current BioREFS about preparing for my prelim. Once I got through that milestone, I wanted to find a way to give back to the community. I’m deeply passionate about mental health and inclusion, which made BioREFS a good fit. I’ve loved working with the other REFS and getting to know the biology community!
