Hi! My name is Nayantara Arora, and I am a third-year Neuroscience major and Global Health and Chemistry double minor in the Clark Honors College. I’ve been working in this lab since Fall 2021, and am interested in understanding the effect of large artery stiffness and Aβ on cognitive function and cerebral microvascular function, with postdoctoral fellow Abby Cullen.

After graduating from UO, I plan to pursue medicine with a focus on equity and social justice, and how these can be approached through an empathetic, research-based, or public health approach. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, drinking boba, and bossing around my younger sister.
