Biographical Information:

Quinn studies the features that bestow function to long non-coding RNAs, including RNA-binding proteins and structural elements. She came to UNC from Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, Ohio in 2021 and is a current Bioinformatics and Computational Biology PhD student, co-mentored between Alain Laederach and Mauro Calabrese. A fun fact is that she once tried one new thing every day for a year!
