Adam Xu

(he, him, his)

Greater Boston Area

I am a junior at Brown University studying Computational Biology, with an emphasis on neurobiology, genetics, and data science.

Last summer, I developed assay platforms for gene therapy delivery and disease rescue at Lilly Gene Therapy as a Research & Development Intern in Boston.

I am an undergraduate research assistant in the Department of Neuroscience supervised by Alex Jaworski, where I study how spinal motor axons avoid inappropriate targets during neurodevelopment. I lead clinical research in ophthalmology and glaucoma diagnostics under Luis Vazquez at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute.

I am also Managing Director of Brown Motion Pictures, a student organization at Brown that brings together student filmmakers to produce eight original short films a year.
