Sam Castillo City Coordinator I'm a sophomore from Anniston, Alabama, and I'm a firm believer that life is good. I'm currently engaged in neuroscience studies at UAB, and I plan to pursue an academic research career with a focus on neurodegenerative diseases. When I'm not buried in my textbooks, anyone is welcome to join me as I grab my ukulele, crank out some worship music, and watch the beloved Birmingham sunset.

Baraa Hijaz City Coordinator I am an undergradaute sophomore majoring in Neuroscience here at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. If I'm not pipetting I'm usually moving weights around at the recreational center.

Annika Daya Social Media & Publicity Manager I am an undergraduate student studying Neuroscience at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. In addition to working in a research lab focused on eye/hand coordination and rehabilitation in stroke patients, I love dancing, spending time with my friends, and finding great places to eat in Birmingham!

Kenneth Paik Social Media and Publicity Manager Hello! My name is Kenneth Paik, the social media advertiser. I will be posting weekly articles on super cool science discoveries and event times we will be planning this year. One interest I have is exploration. Whether it's eating at a new restaurant time or hiking up a mountain, I find myself doing something new all the time.

Stefan Kovac Event and Funding Manager My name is Stefan and I’m an undergraduate Biochemistry student at UAB. Currently, I’m pursuing oral cancer research within the Oral and Maxillofacial Department at UAB School of Dentistry. If I’m not studying or doing research, you will likely find me in the gym, scuba diving somewhere along the cost, or, perhaps, enjoying a book outside!
