Aaron Abai
Advocacy Intern at Partners In Health
President at Harvard Society of Black Scientists and Engineers | Biology Student at Harvard College
I am a junior at Harvard College pursuing a concentration in Molecular and Cellular Biology on the pre-medical track with a secondary in African-American Studies. I'm passionate about science + biomedical research, community health + health equity, and policy + advocacy. Outside of the classroom and laboratory, I enjoy engaging in public service, running, reading memoirs, taking photos, and trying new things!
