Welcome to my Homepage!
Hey there! My name's Ananya (Uh-naan-yah) and I'm a freshman in Pratt, woooo!

Basically, if you give me chocolate and make me laugh, we can be best friends.
Grand Challenges
So for my EGR 53 class, I have a homework assignment about the Grand Challenges for Engineering. Since I'm planning on doing Biomedical Engineering (and being pre-med), I was drawn to the challenge of engineering better medicines! The article I found discussed how the future of biomedicine lies in getting computers to mimic brain chemisty, internal organs, and the interactions of drugs and viruses. This could change the way we test potential medication and could lead to a new era of personalized medicine. But we still have a long way to go before this dream becomes a reality, including figuring out problems like how the human body has billions of neurons, minicking the environment, and more.
